Cracks are showing not only on the Democrat impeachment front, but also with in Dann’s testimony. We’re telling you, the longer he hangs around, the more he’s going to be nicked. From the Columbus Dispatch:
Another of Attorney General Marc Dann’s employees has been suspended, accused of helping her former boss, Anthony Gutierrez, run his Youngstown construction business from his state office.
Meanwhile, the unified front of top state Democrats calling for Dann to resign or face impeachment is starting to show some cracks, now that Dann appears to be forcing Democrats to pursue impeachment.
But the push against Dann grew yesterday when the 700,000-member Ohio AFL-CIO, the state’s largest labor organization, called for his ouster. The union had endorsed Dann in 2006.
The process for pursuing impeachment could be rolled out today by Rep. William G. Batchelder, a Medina Republican who is a former judge. And Dann plans to announce Monday that he is bringing in an outside investigator — possibly a retired judge, or maybe even a Republican — to review an internal probe released last Friday.
