From Roll Call:
Rep. Rick Renzi (R-Ariz.) said Thursday in a statement obtained by Roll Call that he will not seek re-election in 2008, ending months of speculation regarding the ethically clouded Congressman's political future.
"I will not be seeking re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2008. I am honored and thankful to serve Arizona's first district and appreciate all that we have accomplished together over the past 6 years."
One would hope that the voters would have thrown him out of Congress anyways; nevertheless, this is a smart decision on his part, unlike all those other decisions that got him into hot water in the first place.
