    Statement on the Withdrawal of Kimba Wood as a Candidate for Attorney
    General
    February 5, 1993

        I understand and respect Judge Wood's decision not to proceed
    further with the possibility of being nominated as Attorney General. I
    was greatly impressed with her as a lawyer, a judge, and a person. I
    respect her legal talents, judicial record, and integrity. I wish her
    well.
