Patano: Craig staff will ‘do what we’ve always done’

Sandy Patano, Sen. Larry Craig’s top staffer in Idaho, watched her boss announce his resignation this morning, then faced the cameras herself. “Larry Craig is one of the most honorable men I’ve ever known,” Patano said. “I’ve worked for him for 25 years. He has never asked me to cover up anything in my entire career. He has always been about truth and honesty and doing what is just.” Asked what Craig’s staffers will do in the coming 30-day transition period, Patano said they’ll continue “to do what we’ve always done, and what he’s always done – work for Idaho” Betsy Russell /Eye On Boise.
