* The Appoint Bill to the US Senate Facebook group now has over 230 members. This statement was released by the candidate yesterday after the group passed the 200-member milestone…

My friends,

On this great day for Illinois, at this moment, we now have 200 members of the Capitol Fax Bill for Senate Group. Let me just say that I am overwhelmed and humbled by your support. It is after much soul searching and after conferring with my family that I am proud to announce that should our movement be successful and Governor Blagojevich offers me the opportunity to serve you, the people of Illinois, as your Senator, I will accept the appointment.

It is time for a change in America! We have assembled a team that is unprecedented in national politics. My fellow Americans now is the time to show the bureaucrats in Washington D.C. how government should be run for the people not for the special interests. Except for myself and my supporters, lobbyists will have no place in the Capitol Fax Bill Senate office.

Our job is not done. Call or write Rod Blagojevich today and demand change we can believe in. Demand Bill as your Senator! God Bless you and god bless America!

Wow. That gave me a little shivver. The man is almost as eloquent as Obama.
