He wouldn't have to resign because there are no senate elections. He could continue to suck taxpayers dry Too bad the senator wasn’t in Canada.

If he's giving the signals typical of perverted cruising for gay sex and he pleads guilty, stop making excused for the man. Please!

Why Minneapolis? ~ If you fly out of DCA (and every pol does), MSP is the hub you use to get to Idaho. Dastardly schedulers at Northwest, eh? Who was traveling with the senator on the day of record? ~ No one, from all reports. That's the usual mode of travel for Senators heading back to their districts. Sometimes they go with the other Senator from their state. How long has this so-called investigation been going on in Minneapolis? ~ What investigation? Craig was arrested, processed, and released that day. Nothing happened after he pled guilty. I wonder, do they have a real problem with anonymous sex in this particular airport? ~ Not any more than any other airport, I'd imagine. And the $64K question: Who might have reason to destroy the senator’s reputation and why? ~ Looks like the only person hellbent on that was Sen. Craig himself. Any other easy questions? Amen, Mark.

Once again, the American media and their public cannot get their minds out of the toilet, as demonstrated by the coverage and comments that surround this incident, and in all the hoopla, no one is asking the right questions. So, let me suggest a few: Why Minneapolis? Who was traveling with the senator on the day of record? How long has this so-called investigation been going on in Minneapolis? I wonder, do they have a real problem with anonymous sex in this particular airport? And the $64K question: Who might have reason to destroy the senator's reputation and why? How about a little investigative reporting? This could be important, and not for the reasons being bandied about by the pundits.

If he wants to maintain his job AND get his rocks off, he has to do the latter anonymously and that leaves the men's room as one of the few alternatives...I bet there would be no articles or photos if were seen going into a gay bar or sex club. Get real America, you shove people into the closet and then complain when they are in there!
