WASHINGTON (CNN) - White House hopeful Chris Dodd is out with a statement reacting to the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales Monday.

"Mr. Gonzales' Justice Department became a political wing of the Bush Administration and his resignation is long overdue. I will only vote to confirm a nominee for Attorney General who is truly independent and who will guarantee reforms that restore and uphold the Constitution."

Ron, NY NY		August 27th, 2007 1:49 pm ET Dodd is obviously a little annoyed the Gonzales resignation has overshadowed the Democrats staged break-in of his Hartford office in order to frame the national GOP, on the 35th year of anniversary of Watergate.
