SC House Speaker calls for Sanford resignation

Poor Mark Sanford:

The Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives has joined a growing chorus of Republicans calling for Gov. Mark Sanford’s resignation.

In a much anticipated letter delivered to Sanford Tuesday, Harrell formally called on the governor to resign.

"What has become clear is that Sanford’s issues will continue to dominate our state as long as he remains in office," Harrell said. "Whether he should be removed from office is a question that will need to be answered from the State Ethics Commission investigation, but our state’s future is too important to have the governor’s issues overshadow everything we do for the next fifteen months. For the good of our state, Sanford should step aside."

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
