CNN is reporting that Senator Larry Craig, who is up for re-election in 2008 and who plead guilty to disorderly conduct following accusations that he was soliciting a male prostitute in an airport bathroom.

Honestly I think if he is going to resign he needs to do so quickly and Friday, dump day for the news, would be the perfect time.

Could Craig survive? He could probably live out the rest of his term and wait for another larger news event to knock him off the front page but I doubt he would make it through any primary challenges for his seat. Best to step down, reconsider his life and write a book, which seems to be the formula for this kind of thing.

We will know by midnight tonight whether the reports are accurate so stay tuned.
