A case study in stubbornness?

So by the end of this week, everybody and his brother will be demanding that Rod Blagojevich resign. President-elect Obama today added his voice to the chorus.

Question: how long will it take Blago to actually do so?
My guess: it'll be at least another week. Have you seen summaries of what he was saying on those wiretaps? This guy, with an approval rating as Illinois governor below 20%, was scheming to run for president in 2016.

With that kind of low-wattage brainpower, you can expect him to think that he can hold tight, get into a bunker, and ride this out. Don't look for him to resign right away...
