ABC News reports that “Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich will likely hold a press conference toward the end of this week”.

The Governor was good enough to explain why:

On Wednesday morning, Blagojevich told reporters outside his Chicago house that he is eagerly anticipating the chance to state his case.

“I can’t wait to begin to tell my side of the story and to address you guys and most importantly the people of Illinois, that’s who I’m dying to talk to,” said the governor.
