To commemorate the douchiest douche that ever douched in Illinois politics, Headline Games made two casual games that I suggest you check out when you're bored on the job or just in the mood for something simple to play. Both of them poke fun at the scandal. First there is Red Tape Breakout, a version of breakout where you are Attorney General Lisa Madigan trying to serve Blagojevich his papers admist a ton of red tape. Fun, but I found it kind of possible. It may be because I didn't use a mouse and instead I used a touchpad, but the papers come at you fast and I'm not a very coordinated individual.
I prefer Blago Run, which is a frogger type game where you are vying for a senate seat. To get it, you first have to get a dimplomat application or 5 money bags to get the seat open. Then you go over to the now opened senate seat, which you literally steal from Burris. Sweet! You start off as Jessie Jackson Jr. and go through all the named senate seat seekers, with 3 being unknown and looking like they jumped out of an iPod commercial. It's still fun, once you actually read the directions unlike I did the first time. I would suggest this one more.
I may be ashamed that I com from a state where a governor thinks he could get away with selling a senate seat, but you got to laugh at how absurd the situation is, and these games are great for that.
