Our Long National Nightmare is NOT Over

Larry Craig has decided that he may have been a little hasty about stepping down. His campaign spokesman has this crazy idea and we have Senator Arlen Specter to thank for this turn of events:

"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.

A telephone call Craig received last week from Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., urging him to consider fighting for his seat is affecting Craig's decision to reconsider his resignation, Smith said.

UPDATE [Jack M.]: Woot! I get to use the joke I was saving now!

National Media: Senator, you pled guilty after being arrested for lewd conduct in an airport bathroom known to be a hot spot for sex cruisers. Any comment?

Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho): The arresting officer misunderstood me. I am NOT gay. I'm just really into Boise.

Thank you. I'll be here messing up Gabriel's posts all week. Be sure to tip your waitresses.

UPDATE [Gabe, again]: Jack, did you miss the post about cruel and unusual punishment? 'Cause your joke is pushing it. I'm much more partial to this kind of comedy gold from PJ:

jumped the gun on that guilty pea too.
