Bill Graham called for Sen. Larry Craig to resign.
In an e-mail press statement, the candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination called for the Idaho Republican to step down because of a misdemeanor conviction of soliciting sex in an airport men's room.
"Through his actions, Sen. Craig has shown that he cannot lead this country by example," Graham said in the statement.
It was sent for immediate release at 12:26 p.m. today — three and a half hours after this item on CNN's political blog first reported that a GOP source claimed Craig will resign soon.

September 2, 2007 - 9:42am — AnglicoA closet gay Senator gets nabbed for playing footsies in the bathroom and Bill Graham wants him to resign.
A demonstrably incompetent president lies to Congress about pre-war intelligence, resulting in nearly 4000 completely unnecessary deaths of US soldiers and hundreds of thousands of other innocents, and Bill Graham says 'you da man.'
It's not wonder the Republican party is in total shambles.
