Craig Won't Attend His Hearing Wednesday

By Carrie Budoff Brown

(The Politico)  Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) told reporters that he will not attend his hearing tomorrow in Minnesota on seeking the withdrawal of his guilty plea in a men's room sex sting.

"I've been advised not to," Craig said at the Capitol. "I have very competent lawyers."

Craig then slipped into the Senate Republican Conference luncheon and ignored further questions.
