No decision in Craig's court case -- and he may be staying in the Senate

Larry Craig had his day in court, but got no decision yet:

Sen. Larry Craig's lawyers appeared in court Wednesday afternoon seeking to overturn his guilty plea in a men's room sex sting. But a judge made no immediate decision, saying he would issue a ruling no sooner than the end of next week.
And, if there's no decision, Larry's hanging around the Senate:
U.S. Sen. Larry Craig said this week he won't resign until "legal determinations" are made, CNN reported Wednesday.

If his hearing Wednesday in Minnesota doesn't result in a fast and determinant action, that could mean Craig won't resign by his self-imposed deadline of this Sunday.

CNN further quotes a "political source involved in discussions about the case," who said "Craig has made it clear he wants to find a way to stay in office."
This must make Mitch McConnell so happy.
