After being removed from committee postings by his Republican colleagues in the Senate and being called upon to resign by the likes of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.), embattled Sen. Larry Craig went “on vacation” with his wife Wednesday, according to the Washington Post. The fallout surrounding his guilty plea to lewd conduct in a men’s bathroom in the Minneapolis airport has only intensified since Roll Call first broke the story on Monday. The Post points out that the reaction of Craig’s Republican colleagues is highly unusual — no senator has called for the ethics committee to investigate a colleague in the past two decades.

Given that basically no one appears to be willing to defend Craig, despite the senator’s now catch-phrase worthy protestations that he’s not gay, has never been gay and did nothing wrong even though he pleaded guilty, it’s highly likely that it’s only a matter of time before Craig goes ahead and resigns. But how much time?
