The AP follows up on Roll Call's report on Sen. Larry Craig's Minneapolis airport restroom tryst, or attempted tryst:

A Hennepin County court docket showed Craig pleading guilty to the disorderly conduct charge Aug. 8, with the court dismissing a charge of gross misdemeanor interference to privacy.

The court docket said the Republican senator was fined $1,000, plus $575 in fees. He was put on unsupervised probation for a year. A sentence of 10 days in the county workhouse was stayed.

Would Senate rules require Craig to report this misdemeanor conviction to the Senate Ethics Committee?
