Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann said he is "disappointed" and "heartbroken" over his behavior and took full responsibility. But he refused to resign.
The ensuing scandal first reported by The Dispatch last month cost four people their jobs, including two of Dann's closest friends from Youngstown.
Shaken but still defiant, Dann, a Democrat elected in 2006, said he would not resign -- and said he never considered doing so -- despite the expanding fallout from a sex scandal that has rocked his office for the past month.

Just across the Ohio River, in West Virginia, there's another scandal involving Dem. Governor Joe Manchin who appointed an (unqualified) Democratic hack to the Presidency of West Virginia University. Subsequently, Manchin's daughter received a M. A. degree from certain administrators at the school which, it has been discovered, she didn't earn.
There are national-reach scandals. Ohio is a battleground state in November.
Probably another one of those ‘RAT “new direction” things they promised us before the last election.

I’d say that he is really “disappointed” and “heartbroken” that he got caught.
Ohio Ping!
If he won’t resign, the people of Ohio need to show him the door, and the heel of their boot.
What fun is politics if you can’t get the babes? Sometimes I think Clinton was only in it for the chicks. Sad, but probably true.
History of the World, Part I: “It’s good to be the king!”
Inyo-Mono: “Id say that he is really disappointed and heartbroken that he got caught.”
And he takes full responsibility so long as that doesn’t involve actually doing anything.
Dem CELESTIAL MARRIAGE?
Youngstown, of course. Typical Ohio corrupt ‘rats.
Dann needs to resign. Strickland must force him to do so if Dann won’t go voluntarily.
He won’t. Strickland is another corrupt Youngstown-era ‘rat-fink.

By the way, even the far-left, unabashedly liberal Dayton Daily News is calling for Dann’s resignation.
It could be said, ever since Bubba, was "given a pass" by the Senate.
......why should I, tell the truth? ....integrity / honor...forget about it.
Underage intern?
“Disappointed and heartbroken” are new words for the dems. What happened to “troubled” and “sorry”? Guess we get new words with new scandals.
Actually Strickland is from southern Ohio, around the Portsmouth area.
BTW, if anyone needs a “scheduler”, Jessica Utovich is available. Dann has probably been pounding her pretty hard for the last 12 months. So she probably did deserve that $10K raise.
He’s trying to pull a Janet Reno. Accept total responsibility for the train wreck, dust yourself off and stay right there behind the throttle.
Strickland is a FORMER minister who never discourages anyone from indicating (incorrectly) that he REMAINS a practicing minister of the Word.
What irony and hypocrisy....
