"Why doesn't Taft do everyone a favor and resign?"He contributed greatly to Republicans' several losses in 2006 election races.

"Why doesn't Taft do everyone a favor and resign?"

His term runs out in a month so it doesn't matter. He'll be gone very soon anyways.

[untrained skeptic]

I think he's going to see how many records he can set for the history books.

First sitting Governor of Ohio convicted of a crime.

Lowest approval rating.

First veto overridden since the mid-70s.

He's however running out of time since his term is almost over. He was term limited, so he wasn't eligible to run for reelection.
