just a hair crush?

"Those of use who do not live in Illinois had generally not given much thought to Rod Blagojevich until this week. We had never wondered how a person with a 13% approval rating ever managed to get elected in the first place, though now I am personally leaning toward the theory that it was the hair. Blagojevich tossed his thick brown mane and the voters told each other: "Yes, he sounds a little dumb. But truly that is the hair of a reformer."
-Gail Collins, NYT

Good work, Illinois.
