Blagojevich throws down the gauntlet.

I caught a little bit of it this morning, and, frankly, I believe he's innocent of all charges (he might have something on me, too). It's absolutely amazing what politicians can say once they no longer give a fuck.

That's pretty much verbatum what he said, so I don't know why the AP article paraphrases here.
