Howard Dean: Blagojevich must go.

Democratic National Committee Chair Howard Dean today joined those calling for the resignation of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Dean’s statement:

“The arrest of and complaint against Gov. Blagojevich raises serious concerns about his ability to effectively represent the people of Illinois. The conduct alleged represents a disgraceful abuse of the public trust.  In the interest of the people of Illinois and all Americans, he should resign immediately. If he does not, I hope the Illinois legislature will take action.”
