I don't think he should quit because it's unfair that he should be held responsible for something he knew nothing about. He should soldier on and try to be the next PM.

Now Ozawa's image is damaged, if he resigned it would give a younger leader a chance to revamp the party and improve their chances of winning the next election.

He should stay, because the line between what is legal and illegal regarding contributions is so fine. More importantly, he wasn't involved with the donations anyway.

Ozawa must resign because he should be aware of what is going on within his own party. I think this situation clearly demonstrates his lack of leadership.
