And then there's Sen. Craig who pleaded guilt to sexual misconduct, then decided that he was confused about the plea and changed it to not guilty. Then, was allowed to submit a guilty plea for misdemeanor disorderly conduct.

Yup. And then there's Jim McGreevey, Gary Studds, Brock Adams, Fred Richmond, Eliot Spitzer, Willliam Jefferson, Mel Reynolds, Charley Rangel, Diane Wilkerson, Bill Richardson, Diane Feinstein, Rod Blagojevich, Jack Murtha, Tom Daschle, Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Tim Mahoney . . . and so on.
