Craig: I Will Not Blow This Job
Idaho Senator Withdraws Resignation

Less than one week after announcing his intention to resign from office, embattled Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) changed course today, telling reporters in Washington, “I will not blow this job.”

Over the past few days, there had been whispers in Republican circles that Sen. Craig had, in the words of one of the Idaho senator’s associates, “pulled out too early.”

“At the end of the day, Larry does not want to blow this job,” the associate said. “He will do whatever it takes to win back the support of his constituents, even if it means getting down on his knees.”

Another associate of Sen. Craig’s agreed that the Idaho senator announced his intention to vacate his Senate seat too hastily: “I think Larry now feels that to leave office on September 30 would be a premature evacuation.”

Sen. Craig got a key vote of support from Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Penn), who held a press conference at the Senate today to call the charges against the Idaho senator a “bum rap.”

But even as Sen. Craig picked up the support of Sen. Specter, a source close to the Republican caucus indicated that most Republicans are “backing away” from Sen. Craig.

For his part, Sen. Craig told reporters that he would take whatever steps are necessary to find favor with his Republican colleagues: “I will absolutely bend over backwards.”

Propositioning random men in airport bathrooms... you are an embarrassment to the country! GTFO

Why can't you hire hookers or fuck your staff like all the other politicians?

The latest update is that Senator Craig is still a fucktard.

Premature Evacuation. I love it.

There was a clip of him from 1999 on Bill Mahr last friday where he repeatedly called Clinton a "naughty, naughty boy."

I've taken to answering my phone -- in the gayest voice/inflection ever -- "Senator Larry Craig's office". It kills!

[lemon boy]

Okay, I laughed.

Evidently, in Idaho, it's not only horses that stamp their feet in their stalls.

I am an Idaho transplant, and I am proud as hell we gots us a homo politico falling out of his closet!

God bless the taters and pass the ammunition!

This guy keeps denying that he is gay. Somebody needs to ask him, while the cameras are rolling, if he is bi.
