From Rasmussen Reports

» Commentary by Kris Lazaro (registered Democrat)

Rod Blagojevich, Illinois' Democratic governor and consistently one of the most unpopular state chief executives in the country, has said he will appoint Obama's successor during the Christmas holidays. Obama has not endorsed anyone for the post for the seat which he resigned following his election as president.

Just 15% now say Blagojevich is doing a good or excellent job as governor, while 61% rate his performance as poor. Both numbers mark an improvement for Blagojevich from his numbers in the final Rasmussen Reports survey just before Election Day. to With just two years remaining in Obama's Senate term, a key issue for Democrats is the electability of the fill-in senator in 2010.
