Larry Craig had a criminal defense lawyer
Pants on fire, from the Spokesman-Review:
Craig hired lawyer before arrest
Idaho Sen. Larry Craig paid top criminal defense attorney Billy Martin and PR consultant Judy Smith $37,350 in early July, and has had them representing him since last February – throughout the time he said he consulted no lawyer about his legal troubles in Minnesota...
“Larry didn’t tell anyone – not a soul,” said his spokesman, Dan Whiting, who said that was “a well-established giant mistake.” Whiting said Craig never told Martin, a renowned criminal defense attorney, of his arrest or guilty plea, even though he was paying him at the time to represent him...

Dumbass.
What good did his lawyer and PR consultant do him? The Senator needed to change the punch line of the jokes from himself to the stupidity of a cop sitting on a toilet 8 hrs a day waiting to hear the sound of one foot tapping.

Take the Larry Craig Halloween costumes (they’re stupid as hell; except for this one, which is pretty cool actually--I might wear it; how about you?

The ladies on Capital Hill will look absolutely chic in the Halloween "Larry Craig S.W.A.T. Tee-Shirt and optional cap. " Matched by jeans and clunky black shoes or better yet combat boots, people will surely notice you and get the hell out of your way. With a set of handcuffs attached to a thick black belt the look is mostly complete.
As a Criminal Defense Lawyer I have to say I find it difficult to believe that the senator did not understand the plea. I think most non-lawyers will agree.
