Gov. Quinn Showing He's Anti-Blagojevich

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) ― New Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn is wasting no time showing people that he's nothing like his predecessor, scandal-tainted Rod Blagojevich.

Part of Quinn's new job as governor is painting himself as the anti-Blagojevich and he has started to do that through actions both big and small.

Quinn says he'll live at the Executive Mansion in Springfield. He says he wants to reopen the state parks Blagojevich closed and he doesn't want his name plastered on Illinois Tollway signs when Blagojevich's is removed.

The new governor has also pledged to review Blagojevich hires and appointments within state government.
