It seems Virginia's "Governor Ultrasound" Bob McDonnell is going to have a lot more to worry about than whether anyone would ever consider him a viable candidate for president or vice-president ever again: Virginia Dem calls for McDonnell's resignation:

Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) has been the subject of quite a few news stories lately, but all of the developments have been discouraging -- the growing scandal surrounding the governor's ties to Star Scientific's Jonnie R. Williams Sr. isn't just humiliating for McDonnell, it also raises the prospect of criminal charges. This morning, the story reached a new level, with a Democratic lawmaker calling for the governor's ouster. An elected Virginia Democrat is publicly calling on Gov. Bob McDonnell to resign as a gift controversy mushrooms around the Republican. Fairfax City Sen. John Chapman "Chap" Petersen makes the appeal in a letter sent today to McDonnell that urges the governor to return gifts he has received or step down. He is the first sitting member of the General Assembly to take that step. Citing media reports about the growing gift issue, Petersen urges McDonnell to "come clean" about gifts received from Jonnie Williams Sr., the head of troubled health supplement maker Star Scientific Inc. Maddow Blog has obtained a copy of the Petersen letter, which is online here (pdf). "If you or your family has received gifts of the type alleged, then you should disclose that fully and immediately," the letter reads. "If those gifts are retail consumer items which you have retained for personal use, then you should return them immediately to the donor or sell them and donate the money to the Literary Fund. That is the only method by which the public can regain trust in your Office. Without that trust, there is no purpose in continuing to serve." A spokesperson for the governor called the letter "blatantly political," which doesn't seem like much of a response. But wait, it gets worse.
