Larry Craig is one of the few solid conservatives in the Senate and you want to dump him over a silly local issue?

Holding the careers of miltary personnel hostage over pork is hardly a "silly local issue." If we let Craig get away with this, what's to stop say, Sheets Byrd from pulling something similar when he wants his name on yet another piece of concrete in W. Virginia? Will it seem such a "silly local issue" then?

So, 'dumping' Craig is a logical response?

Get real; Craig has been delivering military pork for years he just wants his own piece in an era of base closings. It stinks, but that is Washington DC for you and I do not advocate dumping a guy over such a minor issue.
