Craig to Hold Press Conference: Will He Resign? [2pm MDT]
ABC News ^ | August 28, 2007

Posted on 08/28/2007 12:44:58 PM PDT by mngran

His future in doubt, with allies denouncing his behavior and former staffers voicing disbelief at his arrest, Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, is expected to hold a press conference this afternoon that may answer questions about his political future.

Long dogged by rumors about his sexuality, the married and conservative three-term senator is expected to address the June 11 incident at Minneapolis Airport in which an undercover officer arrested him on charges of lewd conduct in a men's room.

Craig will give a statement this afternoon concerning his arrest at 2 p.m. Mountain Time in downtown Boise, a spokesman said. Craig's staff said he would not take questions.

what got pulled?

Based on the story, nothing. But it wasn't for the lack of Senator Craig trying. ;-)

The only question is whether he will enter rehab in Idaho or DC.

Look, don't make the worst of a bad situation.

Where was he supposed to put his foot?

Butch is a colorful character...first marriage was to J.R. Simplot’s daughter. He tells a funny story about going to work for J.R. and his first day on the job where he thought J.R. was going to start him in some big office as a manager. He admits he didn’t really know his father-in-law until that moment.

I think he’ll resign, too. Make his statement, ask for privacy for his family, then leave without taking questions. I hope that’s what he does....it’s best for everyone.

I don’t see him as a McGreevy type, anxious to preserve his place in the spotlight. I bet he’s almost relieved that he can now go about his “business” without the media scrutiny (maybe).

What a disgusting pervert. He should make this quick and then skulk out of town. I also bet there won’t be a single other Republican accompanying him. Well....maybe Trent Lott. LOL!

I understand that Chuck Norris owns property there.

He needs to run and we need men like him.

ACU Lifetime of 93.4, with 26 years of service is a “loss,” despite his immigration stance. Let’s be honest.

CNN says Craig’s presser will be right after the comercial. I can’t get FNN today.

"Where was he supposed to put his foot?"

I would suggest that any person with an answer to that question is to be avoided.
