Craig hasn’t said whether or not he welcomes help from the civil-liberties group. Will Sen. Craig form an unlikely public partnership with the ACLU in his fight to be allowed to plead “not guilty” to sex sting charges? Or will he allow the ACLU to proceed without remark, under the my-enemy’s-enemy plan? Craig is likely to make the unholy alliance without comment. He’s clearly demonstrated his horror at the idea that people think he’s gay and that he solicited sex in a public bathroom, and his inability to accept his guilty plea and its consequences. To be seen as the recipient of largess from a group traditionally loathed by his peer group is probably not as “unholy” to him as the apparently unthinkable notion of his conviction remaining on his permanent record/Jill Kuraitis, New West Boise.
