Who will take Obama and Biden's senate seats? Well no one knows for sure yet, but it doesn't look like the voters will have anything to do with it.
from the Washington Times
..."In the Prairie State, Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich will name Sen. Barack Obama's replacement — that is, if the embattled governor, who is being investigated for corruption, manages to hold onto office. Mr. Blagojevich briefly flirted with the idea of creating a special commission to help make his pick, but appears to have abandoned the idea. The governor … may not announce anything before Christmas," the columnist said."...
..."Over in Delaware, it isn't even yet clear who will do the appointing. Joe Biden has suggested he's in no hurry to relinquish his seat, so the task might fall to incoming Democratic Gov. Jack Markell, rather than outgoing Democratic Gov. Ruth Ann Minner. Rumors indicate the Delaware political establishment is coalescing around the idea of appointing a placeholder who would carry the seat until 2010, when Mr. Biden's son, Attorney General Beau Biden, could run for the Senate. "...
I really feel like if you are going to run for President then you should give up your senate seat and let the people decide on your replacement, but hey that's just me.
