Patti Blagojevich Apologizes to Neighbors

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Patti Blagojevich, wife of former future Vice Presidential candidate Rod Blagojevich, has sent notes of apology to her neighbors: (abridged)

My husband and I would like to apologize to you and your family for the media barrage that descended on our neighborhood. While we signed up for this kind of attention by choosing a life in public service, you didn't. All you did was choose to live in our wonderful neighborhood.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience this has caused you. We hope it will soon subside, not only for the sake of our children but also for you and your family.

The Political Machine has obtained an early draft of the note, which contained this later-excised postscript:

P.S. Despite what may or may not have been said at our last dinner party, it is very unlikely that Rod could have you all fired from your individual jobs, nor is it likely that he would do so, were he able. Merry Christmas.

I also love how the note blames the media frenzy on their "life in public service," as if the state comptroller is being chased by paparazzi.
