Petro not going to run....

thanks to friends at www.rightohio.com for passing this info along...


I have word from credible sources that former Attorney General Jim Petro will not be running for Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court. Petro is simply too busy making piles of money with Stan Chesley, and has even allowed his domain name, JimPetro.com, to expire.
