I am not a fan of John Ensign. I have called for his resignation from the Senate. He is about at the level of pond scum or the donkey crap that is on the baseball field in Blue Diamond.
John Ensign is saying that he has been cleared by the DOJ for any wrong doing. From the Sun: Lawyers for Sen. John Ensign say the Department of Justice has halted its investigation of the Nevada senator, who was accused of improperly paying off employees to cover up an extramarital affair.
"The Department of Justice has informed us that Senator Ensign is no longer a target of its investigation and that it has no plans to bring any charges against him on this matter," lawyers said in statement.
This is the second recent reprieve for Ensign, with the Federal Election Commission deciding last month not to pursue a campaign finance complaint against the senator.

I do agree with this. What Ensign did was disgusting but it wasn't illegal and the investigation should have been dropped.
But Ensign should resign for being a jackass and an embarrassment to Nevada (like Harry Reid isn't an embarrassment?). But anyways, Ensign is toast in 2012 in the GOP primary and will be gone soon.
Ensign saw David Vitter get re-elected after his sleazy behavior, so he has no incentive to resign.
