No. The offense to which he pleaded guilty is of no significance with respect to his abilities as a legislator.

Larry Craig will be Larry Craig, but hypocrites like Larry Craig should be exposed and made to leave the Congress of the United States before they get caught in a public bathroom.
In a Party like the Republican Party right now, it is telling to see so many so call public servants who have failed to clean their own houses before they started accusing everyone else or anyone else's of conduct they consider evil in others.

Yes, Senator Craig should be resigned.

Yes he should. Simply because he said "I am going to resign".
And to Decoy Duck, he signed an admittance of guilt, which stated that the plea could ONLY be made if he were guilty and of sound mind. He signed it knowing what the charge was, and what the conditions were. There's no "game" there. He hates homosexuals, because he is one. That simple. He just wanted the issue to go away quickly and without a lot of fuss. It didn't.

He could desire to proceed to be in place of work and finished his term via fact the human beings who voted for him needed. i do no longer think in stings! From what became suggested with regards to the airport restroom prevalence, there became no longer adequate performed to warrant a end that he's gay. And, in spite of the fact that if he's gay (and that i doubt that he's), there is not any regulation on the books that say a individual who's gay is barred from being a senator.

Since I am a Democrat, I vote that he stays. By remaining in U.S. Senate, he is a distraction for the stay-in Iraq movement/ The Democrats are just salivating knowing they will win his senate spot in 2008.

I don't think so. The reason being that the whole publicity thing reeks of a setup, and his adamant denial makes me think this even more. Politics is a very dirty 'game' and those involved will do almost anything to have a higher ranking amongst themselves.
To David: The fact that he signed a confession does not mean that he was not pressured with threats to do so by his peers.

No, but he does need to get his private life in order or, give his constituents the pleasure of voting him out next term.

He should change his party affiliation and become a Democrat. It is his only chance of being re-elected. He is toast as a Republican.

I thought he already did. I told him I'm usually happy to see a Republican resign in disgrace, but I encouraged him to tell the (_*_)'s in his party to shove their demands just for spite.
