Sen. Larry Craig on Thursday said he was not resigning from the Senate despite a Minnesota judge denying his request to withdraw his guilty plea stemming from his arrest in a sex sting at an airport men's
"I am extremely disappointed with the ruling issued today," Craig said in a statement. "I am innocent of the charges against me. I continue to work with my legal team to explore my additional legal options."
"I will continue to serve Idaho in the United States Senate, and there are several reasons for that," the Republican said.
Look, Senator, people know you did it. With your plead of "guilty" you removed all doubt. Now, you're only going to hurt the Republican party and your own state by being distracted by this dog and pony show.
What you do in your bedroom isn't our business. However, I think it's best that you stick to your original resignation and hand over the reigns of power to someone who won't be sidelined for idiotic reasons why the United States has bigger issues at hand.
