A federal judge has indefinitely postponed the Jan. 6 sentencing for Tony Rezko, the prominent political fund-raiser and former adviser to Gov. Blagojevich.
The move this morning came after Rezko lawyers asked U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve last week to throw out the sentencing date.
Rezko's request comes as he restarts talks with federal prosecutors. Those talks hit a stumbling block as Rezko asked to be let out of solitary confinement at the downtown federal lockup. He asked for a rushed sentencing in January.
But last week's revelation that the government has recordings in the governor's case, appeared to change Rezko's mind about cooperating.
Huh? To some folks, maybe even in Obama's camp or The Chosen One himself has to find this news as good as being told they need to do a second colonscope....
