California's Hunter doesn't say when he'll quit

California Rep. Duncan Hunter showed no emotion in the courtroom when he pleaded guilty to misusing campaign money. Outside court he declined to say when he would leave office. Prosecutor Phil Halpern noted Hunter's honorable service in the Marine Corps, but he had a sharp rebuke for the congressman's claim that the investigation was a politically motivated "witch hunt." Halpern vowed to seek a prison term for Hunter of at least a year, although his plea agreement calls for up to five years.
