Says Hewitt: [1]
Today. [2]
I realize that I did not say this about Senator Vitter, but Craig’s behavior is so reckless and repulsive that an immediate exit is required.
Guess I can’t argue that.
Not that it’s going to bother things much. The seat he holds has about as much chance of going to a Democrat as I have of being a concert pianist. Rumble was that former Lt Gov Jim Risch was going to run for the seat anyway.
Afterthoughts: (Bit)
- There is something to be said for the idea that were Craig a Democrat, he would likely have a committee assignment as a result of this arrest, amidst cries of “equality” and “understanding”.
- Is there something about this particular Airport that they had a stakeout going on? Is it possible that Craig was a target of such a stakeout? I think if that was the case, it doesn’t change much, except for the timing involved… Craig it isn’t a less valid target, but it raises the possibility of a politically timed arrest.
- It’s interesting that the mainstream media doesn’t seem to have a problem remembering what party Larry Craig is attached to , as opposed to when Democrats get arrested.
