As the Chicagoland version of Blagopoly continues to to play out, one character in particular is ducking reporters left and right.

President-elect Barack Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, refused to take questions from reporters this morning about whether he was the Obama “advisor” named in the criminal complaint against Gov. Rod Blagojevich.  [is his name really Rod?]

No seriously, the dude his chapped because he REALLY doesn’t want to answer questions.

“You’re wasting your time,” Emanuel said. “I’m not going to say a word to you.

He might not be answering any questions, but remember, we’ve got a screen shot of his gmail account.
