FoxNews just reported that Thomas Kean, Jr., the Republican Senate candidate from New Jersey, just called for Denny Hastert's resignation as Speaker of the House. He's the first GOP senate candidate to do so. No mention of this yet on the Internets (at least none that I could find).
Kean is in a close race to take that seat from Robert Menendez, who now appears to have a slight lead in the polls, so it doesn't surprise me that Kean did this. It's a good move politically. In fact, I'm sure will see more of these defections in the days ahead.
UPDATE: Here is an article on this.
