JJ>and does in fact resign.... are those charges for which he could be
JJ>prosecuted criminally after he leaves office?
 
Yes he can. The statute of limitations will not have run if he resigns and 
although he had resigned, resignation would not absolve him of his legal 
liability. Gore could pardon him, however unlikely that would be since it 
would be tantamount to political suicide based upon the mood of the country 
right now.
