Jennings and Utovich Also Gone, Dann Admits Affair, GOP Calls for Resignation

All the gory details in the Dispatch. Also the Beacon Journal and the Blade.

If Dann doesn't quit on his own, I now expect that Gov. Ted Strickland will demand his resignation shortly. No, not just that I expect it, I want him to.

What a shame. Dann stepped up the mission of the attorney general's office and was producing good results. But, he is not the only visionary person who could be in charge there, and he bears the responsibility for letting the office slip into disarray under incompetent and unprincipled managers of his own choosing.

UPDATE: The Warren Tribune Chronicle has announced that it will call for Dann's resignation in an editorial tomorrow. Moreover, the editorial board apologizes for endorsing Dann in 2006.
