CNN: Craig Likely To Resign As Early As Today
CNN's Dana Bash reporting Friday morning from Boise, Idaho:
BASH: It looks more and more like the political writing is on the wall for the senator. In fact, we have a fresh indication just a few minutes ago, we got it, that the senator is likely to step down. CNN is told that the Republican National Committee, Kiran, was poised to take the extraordinary step of calling on Senator Craig to step down. But we are told party leaders decided to hold off because they got indications that the senator himself is going to announce that he is going to resign and we're told there were high level meetings on this that took place here in Idaho yesterday.Now, as you can imagine, these are highly sensitive discussions and, for that reason, our sources are reluctant to give us very many details of these conversations, but we are told by well-placed sources here in Idaho and back in Washington that it is likely that we are going to see Senator Craig resigning perhaps as early as today.
