[Kansas Attorney General Paul] Morrison steps down amid scandal

He resigned in an attempt to short circuit the real investigations into his criminal behavior, which are a lot more serious than another sex harassment case, which he’s had before.
I wonder if Tiller the Killer will get his bribes, I mean “contributions” to Morrison back? This is a huge embarrassment to the leftie newspaper editors in this state, as they have been doing the lewinsky on Morrison ever since he switched parties and started attacking Kline and carrying water for Tiller. They loved him so much there were little hearts on their editorials.

It’s also another embarrassment for our carpetbagging governor, who was so proud to welcome this crook into the RAT ranks.

snip “my guess is Morrison could wind up in state prison.”

I doubt he will go to prison regardless of what the evidence shows. The Dem governor wants this to go away. Kline is the political winner right now but knows that if he persues Morrison, he will once again be made the monster by the media.

His quick resignation was probably a “plea bargain.” He leaves quietly and the Dems and Rinos will make sure there is no criminal conviction.

I figured this would happen eventually, but not so soon after the scandal broke.

Same here. Sebellius probably pressured him to step down hoping that the scandal would fade from the press if he did. That way, she can get someone in there and have them build a reputation before the 2010 election. (Of course, Morrison had a 'reputation' too, and look what that got us.)

He used to be a Repub and changed to DEMONcRAT to run for the AGs office.

The RINOs are killing Kansas politics. They’ve completely split the party, and have no qualms voting Democrat versus a Conservative Republican.
