Fellow Republicans not happy with Larry Craig's latest decision

Seems like fellow Republicans are not too happy about Larry Craig's recent announcement about staying in the Senate:

"Republicans indicated Thursday that they plan to make life in the Senate uncomfortable for Larry E. Craig. Republican Senate leaders plan to confer during the chamber’s Columbus Day recess about how to cope with Craig’s decision. The consultations could result in his ejection from all of his committee assignments. Craig had already relinquished his status as ranking Republican on one committee and two subcommittees.
GOP leaders had requested an Ethics Committee investigation in August, shortly after learning that Craig had pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct after an undercover police officer interpreted some of Craig’s actions in a restroom as a solicitation for sex. The most extreme option available to that committee is recommending expulsion — something that hasn’t happened in the Senate since the Civil War."
