Hastert to resign?

According to the Politico, columnist Robert Novak will report this weekend:

Former House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert has indicated to a close former aide that it is likely he will not run for a 12th term from his northern Illinois district and may even resign from Congress before his present term concludes. That runs counter to widespread speculation on Capitol Hill that Hastert will continue in the House for another two years as a private member with no leadership responsibilities.

8. I think Dennis likes Big Macs and Extra Large Meat Lovers pizzas
stashed in the seat of his spidey man underoos, so he can snack all night long.

7. I believe that was the rumor when he was bumped from the top spot
He was going to stick around only long enough to vote himself (and others) another raise and then resign.

9. i won`t shed a tear
he`s made and will make millions on his land "investments" near where he lives ,so he maybe he`s thinking
it is time to go. there is`t anyone to take his place so it would prudent to step aside now to find someone to replace him on the ticket. the dems have come closer in this district,so maybe we can have a democrat in 2009...

14. The least remarkable Speaker of the House of all time...
... at least people knew who Gingrich was, and knew enough about him to figure out he was an asshole.
