Rod Blagojevich hasn't paid his storage bill for a year, and the owner's threatening to auction off the accused governor's belongings, including a life-size Elvis statue.The Elvis statue, given to the Governor as a present by the late State Sen. Vincent Demuzio (D-Carlinville), held a prominent place behind the Governor's desk.   More HERE.

Correction: The photo below is from a collection of photos available online from Governor Blagojevich's office. We found the photo below before the Tribune made a photo available on their site of the statue in the storage place HERE. It appears to be a different Elvis statue that's in storage, and thus up for auction.
