Why does this story just keep on going ?

"President-elect Barack Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, refused to take questions from reporters this morning about whether he was the Obama “advisor” named in the criminal complaint against Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

The complaint states Blagojevich wanted a promise of a high-level appointment or some other reward for Blagojevich in exchange for Blagojevich naming Obama’s friend Valerie Jarrett to replace him in the U.S. Senate."

Many times a story like this that could be diffused quickly but is not has more
"legs" than we can see. Not saying anything bad happened but why don't those involved just stand up and answer for it. The President Elect SHOULD be interested in who fills his seat, but why doesnt anyone just say what communication there was ?
