Rep. Jesse L. Jackson Jr. would accept an appointment to the Senate if Barack Obama wins the presidency and leaves Gov. Rod Blagojevich with a vacancy to fill.

“I wouldn’t say no if asked,” said the Illinois Democrat, who serves as a national co-chairman for Obama’s campaign. In the past, he has declined to speculate on Obama Senate succession scenarios.

How about instead of begging Obama for a job, Jesse Jr takes care of his dad by doing whatever it takes to have him along with his butt-buddy Al Sharpton as far away from any media outlets as possible! Nevertheless, he seems to have slightly more sense than his old man, or at least enough to keep his day job.
