Feds to Question Jackson Jr in Blago Case

Jesse Jackson Jr is "Senate Candidate No. 5" in the feds' case against Rod Blagojevich, the one whose emissary reportedly offered to raise up to $1 million for the busted governor in exchange for the seat, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. The Illinois rep says he'll comply with prosecutors' request to interview him, but added, "I am not a target of this investigation."

Blagojevich was recorded saying No. 5 may get the seat if he provided something "tangible up front." (More Rod Blagojevich stories.)
