Update on Senator Larry Craig

The U.S. Senator from Idaho,Larry Craig who had announced his resignation over the sex scandal may not resign.He has hired a high powered lawyers to fight the charges because he said he thought he was pleading guilty to a misdemeanor.

The White House has made a statement saying that the situation was disappointing and his colleagues such as Republican senator John McCain said that he should resign.

I am not an American law expert.I am thinking though, if you plead guilty to a charge it is almost impossible to fight the case and get favourable results.Also he has announced that he will resign at the end of September.Politicians think it is their right to speak with forked tongues but hey ....come on.

You have to admit though Senator Craig is one tough old broad, fighting to the very end.!
