Craig Resigns

As expected, Sen. Larry Craig resigned today, saying, "The people of Idaho deserve a senator who can devote 100 percent of his time and effort to the critical issues of our state and of our nation. Therefore it is with sadness and deep regret that I announce that it is my intent to resign from the Senate, effective September 30th."

Craig added that he intends to work to have his disorderly conduct conviction expunged, saying, "We'll fight this like hell." Idaho Governor Butch Otter (really) is expected to appoint another Republican to replace Craig.
