The Illinois Republican Party isn’t impressed by Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s statement on his arrest. Party chairman Andy McKenna said Friday that anything short of resignation by Blagojevich is "unacceptable." McKenna says the Democratic governor should resign and "spare voters any more heartache." Blagojevich was arrested last week on a variety of corruption charges. He gave his first substantial statement Friday, promising to stay in office and fight the allegations. ______ Copyright 2008 Associated Press. All rights reserved.
