Ol' Wide Stance himself, Sen. Larry Craig, is apparently rethinking his resignation, the AP is reporting:
Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, is reconsidering his decision to resign after his arrest in a Minnesota airport sex sting and may still fight for his Senate seat, his spokesman said Tuesday evening.This is excellent. I can't wait for his next press conference where he'll announce that HE'S NOT GAY and that he'll be resuming his normal duties immediately. The national GOP will have to go after him publicly, resulting in more Republican-on-Republican action than a Las Vegas Log Cabin conference."It's not such a foregone conclusion anymore, that the only thing he could do was resign," said Sidney Smith, Craig's spokesman, in Idaho's capital.
"We're still preparing as if Senator Craig will resign September 30, but the outcome of the legal case in Minnesota and the ethics investigation will have an impact on whether we're able to stay in the fight -- and stay in the Senate."
Sen. Craig asked that I use that analogy.
"more Republican-on-Republican action than a Las Vegas Log Cabin conference"
brilliant.
