Rod Blagojevich will show up at his own impeachment trial after all. The Illinois governor will appear before the state Senate tomorrow, the Chicago Tribune reports. Blagojevich won't take questions but will deliver a closing argument on his own behalf. State senators could vote to remove him from office later in the day. (More Rod Blagojevich stories.)
