House Speaker Edwin Snowe Resigns

"His stated reason is that the House of Representatives announced it has no confidence in him and he has no confidence in them," said spokesman James Jensen.

Snowe allies say he will decide in the next day or two whether he will resign from the House entirely.

He's still blaming the executive for his woes, but hasn't offered any proof of Ellen's complicity in the plot to oust him. I was just speaking with a Liberian colleague this morning, and we agreed that the Ellen camp played this really well, by mostly ignoring him. They had bigger things to worry about, clearly.
