Dean Heller says Ensign making it difficult for major GOP candidates

[ccharles000]

That's what Rep. Dean Heller said about scandalized Sen. John Ensign on "Nevada Newsmakers" on Wednesday, in addition to saying he won't call him for him to resign "at least on this show." It's good stuff -- partial transcript and link below:

Partial transcript and video link:

Sam Shad: As you view it, do you think that that is causing him problem in his ability to do his job as a United states Senator?

Heller: As the investigation goes forward, certainly. And of course it is going to have more to do with how those investigations are completed. If the FBI does, in fact, get involved and decides to indict, yeah it will have serious repercussions.

SS: What about day to day operations, between the delegation for example, yourself and his ability to get legislation moving forward.

DH: I don’t know the exact answer to that, but I have to say that to this day, yes there have been some implications. Well, for example, our delegation used to meet at least monthly in Sen. Reid’s office. And I think this has kind of put a cloud over the delegation getting together on a reasonable time frame.
