WASHINGTON -Sen. Roland Burris, whose deep ties to former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich seemed to doom his Senate tenure from the start, will not run for a full Senate term in 2010. The move increases Democrats' chances of holding on to the former Senate seat of President Barack Obama.

I suppose he will still get his unearned pension for being a senator.

A clear cut case of politics at its worse. Burris played the game with a dirty politician, thus showing that he is also a dirty politician. I am certain he will not run now, as one of Blago's henchmen has signed on for states evidence to secure a lighter sentence. Burris knows what is coming. He always struck me as a shift 'little man'.
