The latest national media rumor following Rod Blagojevich's arrest is that he's mentally ill in one way or another. He's a "sociopath," he's "insane," he has "delusions of grandeur," according to various sources who know him.
Many, many people hate the idea of anyone diagnosing a public or historical figure from afar. Me, I love it (makes me feel all warm & self-important). And I think it's likely the man is mentally ill, though I'm not quite stupid enough to try to pin a specific illness on him.
Still, mental illness in no way precludes stupidity.
