Ted Strickland on Monday encouraging impeachment:

"I am calling for his resignation and I am saying that I will encourage impeachment if he refuses to step down. And I think that's a pretty clear message to the people of this state that inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated." (Strickland News Conference)

Ted Strickland on Tuesday moving forward with impeachment:

"I believe that given the totality of the information that is known that there (are) justifiable reasons for continuing to move forward with an impeachment process," Mr. Strickland said.  (Gongwer News Service)

Ted Strickland on Thursday not supporting impeachment:

Gov. Ted Strickland said there are grounds for impeachment, but he also kept the door open for not going through the removal process if the evidence doesn't warrant it. 

"I've expressed my opinion, but there's a lot of research going on, and if there isn't very credible evidence that something of a serious nature that can be established occurred, then I certainly would not support impeachment," Strickland said.  (Columbus Dispatch)
