A1. It's not Obama's fault that Blagojevish is corrupt
A2. I don't believe that Obama was connected in any way to the scandal.
A3. Just because Obama came from the state of Illinois doesn't mean he is associated with this jerk.
A4. Gov. Blagojevich is responsible for his own actions. Obama is not responsible for the governor.
A5. There is no available evidence that Obama had any role. Moreover, the tape recordings show that Blagojevich was angry at the Obama camp because he did not believe that they would offer him anything for chosing a particular person as senator.
A6. My opinion of Obama was already negative.
A7. My opinion of Obama does not change because he was not selling his own seat, which he couldn't have done anyways. It negatively affects my view of the governor.
A8. I bel;ieve he was not involved in the scandal.
A9. This has nothing to do with Obama. It seems that many Illinois Governors are corrupt. Rep and Dem alike.
A10. I still don't think very highly of Obama.
A11. it doesn't affect my opinion of obama

A17. It does not directly involve Obama and don't believe he should be held responsible for another man actions
A18. Obama is not responsible for the actions of the Illinois governor.
A19. Blagojevich and Obama weren't hanging around each other a lot; his idiocy doesn't reflect on Obama.
A20. I don't feel that the governor was really involved with Obama. Just because that guy is playing dirty does not mean that Obama is too.
A21. No real connection between the two.
A22. Obama wasn't involed, Blagojevich is to blame.
A23. I believe in Obama and trust he knew nothing of what the Governor was doing
A24. I did not think Obama would make a good president before the election and I still feel that way. I don't think Obama can be held responsible for the actions of all elected officials in the US.
A25. I do not think Obama had anything to do with this.
A26. Obama was not involved, so no reason to change opinion

A33. Obama is a clean as we can every hope to get in an elected official.
A34. Theres no evidence Obama was involved
A35. This issue is specific to the govenor. Unless evidence is found otherwise this doesn't effect Obama
A36. I don't know anything about the scandal.
A37. On the audio tape Obama was cleared of all blame. Blagojevich was angry that the Obama camp wouldn't do offer anything.
A38. My opinion of Obama is not affected, as the governor made statements on the wiretaps indicating a disdain for Obama, calling him various expletives. Additionally, I believe Obama had no role in the governor's attempts to fill his vacated senate seat.
A39. I don't believe he is involved in any way with what the Illinois governor is accused of. He may have given a recommendation, but that is as far as I believe he is involved. I did not vote for Obama, but do really believe that he would be involved in som
A40. He is in no way involved.
A41. I find no information that affects my opinion.
A42. I didn't think much of Barak Obama being President so it really doesn't bother me.
A43. This news doesn't surprise me; I expect things like this out of politicians.
A44. I didn't know that Blagojevich had that much contact with Obama
A45. There is no evidence that Obama or those close to him knew of or supported Blagojevich's effort.
A46. I do not believe Obama is involved with this scandal.
B1. this is solid proof of the allegations he was corrupt
B2. HE WAS TO QUICK TO STATE HE NEVER SPOKE WITH THE GOV.
B3. This is just another black mark against Obama, adding to a long list of inappropriate associations, such Rev. Wright & the known terrorist, in addition to his questionable citizenship & the fact that Illinois has been an extremely corrupt state.
B4. did not like him before do not like him more or trust him now
