Alfred Dowe has served on city
council for six years, and had two
years remaining on his term, but in a
letter to Mayor Nelson Harris, Dowe
said he was resigning, effective
immediately.


Dowe wrote, "it has been my
extreme pleasure serving the community
that I love and it is in that spirit,
given the recent events, that I choose
not to be a distraction to the progress
of the city."


Harris would not offer specifics
about the new information, but
confirmed that it involved cases of
double billing, in which Dowe sought
reimbursement from the state and the
city for the same expense.

swinging Saturday against Barack Obama,


angry about mailings his campaign is
sending out in Ohio.



(Sot from Hillary Clinton/(NY)
Democratic Presidential Candidate)
13:09:21


"Shame on you Barack Obama. It is time
you ran a campaign consistent with your


messages in public."



Track 2: The mailings target Clinton's
positions on two subjects-healthcare


and the North American Free Trade
Agreement. The New York Senator says


the


claims in both are misleading....that
her plan for universal health coverage


would force Americans to buy insurance
even if they can't afford it, and that


she supported Nafta.

you for a great tour."



Track 3: Obama was also in Ohio
Saturday, touring a medical facility in


Columbus. He says the mailings are
accurate, and that Clinton's change in


tone may be a tactical move.



(Sot from Barack Obama/(IL) Democratic
Presidential Candidate)


16:00:59 "Senator Clinton as part of
the Clinton campaign supported Nafta.
She


said in her book it was one of her
greatest successes."



Track 4: Clinton says the attacks are
right out of the playbook of Karl Rove,


President Bush's former top political
advisor.



Clinton: 13:06:28 "It is blatantly
false. And yet he continues to spend


millions of dollars perpetuating
falsehoods."



Track 5: Former president Bill Clinton
has said his wife's run for the


presidency will end if she loses the
primaries in Ohio and Texas on March
4th.


The mailings will likely be front and
center Tuesday, when the two candidates


meet up for a debate in Cleveland.
