Submission Deadline EXTENDED: July 15th, 2009
As you know Illinois' disgraced ex-Governor, Rod Blagojevich, aka Blago was recently impeached. Since then he has been making the rounds on network television defending his case. At times, comparing himself to Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela and even Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Recently, graffiti art stencils of the former governor jogging in his black track suit and looking over his shoulder are finding their way onto buildings and alleys around the city of Chicago. Painted with black spray-paint on primarily white viaduct walls the image is reminiscent of Blago's actual Ravenswood area jog in snowy Chicago mid-winter earlier this year during his indictment.
