AND NEITHER IS IDAHO SEN. LARRY CRAIG!

In his non-news conference Tuesday Craig said: "I am not gay. I have never been gay."

Thanks for sharing.

It would have been news if he said: "I am gay. I have always been gay."

But it would have been huge news if he said: "I am not gay. BUT I USED TO BE!!!"
Or maybe: "I am not gay. BUT I MAY BE TOMORROW!"

It would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.

He said he pled guilty "in hopes of making it go away." He didn't even tell his family, friends and staff because, "I wasn't eager to share this failure but I should have anyway because I AM NOT GAY."

This is a U.S. Senator?

(Random thought while watching news conference: he profusely apologized to fellow "Idahoans." It's pronounced "Ida-HO-ans." I couldn't help but think maybe Imus should move his ranch there to be an IdaHOan.)

Craig also resigned his prominent role in Mitt Romney's presidential campaign.
Romney, of course, stood up for his friend Larry, telling CNBC: "He's disappointed the American people."
Romney compared Craig's actions to President Clinton's fling with Monica Lewinsky and former congressman Mark Foley's overtures to male teenage pages.

Mitt may be the most politically expedient candidate in American history.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
