Cause I just had this idea tonight, and while it might not work now, I think it could work next year (if done in the right location). This is just one of those random things that pops into your head, but I thought that it might be kind of funny to put a missing person style poster looking for Larry Craig in men’s rooms. At the very least, I think that putting them in the Minneapolis airport men’s rooms while the delegates are heading to (or from) the convention next year (or in the convention center’s men’s rooms) would be rather hysterical. ---

Beats my idea of simply scrawling “For a good time, call Sen. Larry Craig” on the stalls. 🙂 ---

[This](http://wonkette.com/politics/larry-craig-scandal/exclusive-i-had-sex-with-larry-craig-314897.php) sort of thing should keep the meme alive for a while yet. ---

The Larry Craig thing has morphed into a general fear of Republicans lurking in restrooms. ---

[QUOTE=Sampiro] Good God! Larry Craig had sex with the American Choppers dad?! [/QUOTE] No, with a really attractive man. So, either would be correct, but this isn’t the AC dad. His mustache goes further down his neck. ---

Certainly not. I went to a Halloween party this weekend and there were _two_ Larry Craigs there. There’s plenty of life left in this one. Time alone won’t erase it – it will take another high=profile scanal. ---

[QUOTE=CalMeacham] Certainly not. I went to a Halloween party this weekend and there were _two_ Larry Craigs there. [/QUOTE] Is that true or is that just what they told you when they were trying to play footsies in the men’s room? I can see that now as the new official excuse: “I was making a Larry Craig joke!”
