Source: GOP leaders want Craig to quit as planned - CNN.com

Ha ha! I was only kidding!  That seems to be what Senator Larry Craig is saying now that he's come out and is trying to withdraw his resignation from the Senate.  He's actually trying to get his guilty plea withdrawn as well.

I've spoken with several people in the criminal justice field and they have all agreed that his chances of getting his guilty plea withdrawn are almost zero.  They have all said that a judge would look at it and say "why should I allow this.  You understood it, you signed it, and you moved on with your life."

Senator Craig is only doing this because he wants to keep his job.  Personally, I think even if he does manage to keep his job by some miracle, the voters of Idaho, a VERY conservative state, would vote him out anyways.

Sorry Larry, but you broke the law, you plead guilty, now you want to avoid the heat from committing that crime.  It's simply not going to happen.
