CHICAGO (AP) -- Ousted Gov. Rod Blagojevich isn't holding back on how he feels about Illinois lawmakers.
Blagojevich says a bunch of them cheat on their spouses, drink too much and blindly follow their legislative leaders because they don't know what's going on in Springfield.
Blagojevich unleashed the criticism Wednesday during an interview on WLS Radio's "The Don and Roma Morning Show."
It was the latest stop on a Blagojevich media tour that will take him to New York for an interview with Fox News' conservative talk show host Sean Hannity.
Blagojevich has been shuttling back and forth to New York doing national TV interviews to profess his innocence since his arrest on federal corruption charges and removal from office.
In Wednesday's radio interview, Blagojevich blasted Democrats for wanting to raise taxes and complained that some lawmakers take their marching orders from Chicago Mayor Richard Daley.
