2. Think Of All Those Billable Hours
Here's a fish with millions probably stashed away in his campaign funds and other places, probably has already contacted some fat cats for his "defense fund" and the cash registers at the lawyers offices must have been ringing loudly when his call came in.

I was once told there were two types of lawyers. One who will tell you the law and the truth...even if it means accepting guilt or a plea. Then there are others who see deep pockets and high profile...what do they have to lose? If they win the case, they claim to be the saviors, if Craig loses, then, well, he was guilty to start off with...in either case, hundreds of hours will be billed and if Craig does get this thing overturned it's gonna cost him big time...as well as his corrupt and inept party.

Yep...I'd love to see the plea bargain withdrawn and the other charges reinstated and go to trial...sure would be great timing to have a verdict come down right during the GOOP convention next summer.

3. Drinking coffee can be hazardous when you read about the GOP.
