Saxbe in a restless stand as elder statesman seeks calmer life
William Saxbe, 61, a longtime public figure from Ohio who has served in the General Assembly, the Senate, as attorney general and ambassador to India, reflects on retirement and his blunt political style. He explains his withdrawal from active campaigning while remaining engaged in law practice in Mechanicsburg and Columbus. He criticizes FBI wiretaps, recalls Nixon era dynamics, and comments on India’s emergency and Indira Gandhi, asserting a wish to stay near family and influence public affairs from a quieter perch.
