If Howell Raines were to resign, that would go a long way toward restoring some credibilty to the Times. But he won't, ego's too darn inflated. I guess one man's career means more than the restored credibilty of a once-respected paper. Oh well.

If Howell Raines were to resign.....

He is a lefty so that is genetically impossible. That would be admitting he was wrong and lefties can't do that. Have you ever seen one do it? Look at Slick. Look at Hillary. Look at any of them. They are still claiming to be victims rather than being guilty of something, or of anything, period. No matter how guilty, they will ride it out rather than admit guilt. Remember Torrecelli? After being found guilty in court his fellow Dems refused to punish him and he refused to quit or admit guilt. He was finally forced out by the DNC (Clintons), not because he was a crook, but because he was losing the race to a Republican. The same is true of Raines. He won't be allowed to quit, not that he wants to, because that would discredit the left.
