At a street party on a muggy Chicago night, Illinois' former Gov. Rod Blagojevich jumps on stage with a look-a-like of the once-upon-a-time male hunk Fabio, announcing that they're both out of work.
Blago takes over the mic, swivels his hips, and pays homage to his idol, Elvis, singing "Treat me Nice." At one point he unbuttons his shirt and flips up his collar.
All of this happens before a jumpy audience that both cheers and heckles him.
One person screams: "It's a f-ing valuable thing!" a reference to secret FBI wiretaps where Blagojevich, as governor, is alleged captured talking about selling President Obama's former Senate seat.
