Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich lost his appeal to move the date of his upcoming trial.

The trial is set for June of this year.  Blagojevich's attorneys pleaded that they did not have enough time to prepare an adequate defense  (that could take an eternity!).  Hence, they'd requested a mid-November (after the election) trial date. 

The judge didn't buy their argument.  Their motion probably wasn't helped by the fact that Blago is appearing on the weekly reality series, "Celebrity Apprentice".

The judges decision will be a blow to Illinois Democrats who were hoping their election chances would not be sullied by the revelations coming from the trial.
