OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) _ Republican members of Oklahoma's congressional delegation had no comment Wednesday about Idaho Senator Larry Craig's alleged sexual misconduct at an airport men's room.

A spokesperson for Congresswoman Mary Fallin said the representative didn't want to comment. Spokespersons for Senators Jim Inhofe and Tom Coburn and Representative Frank Lucas said the men were available for comment.

The office of Representative John Sullivan did not respond to a request for comment.

In Washington, some of Craig's fellow Republican congressmen -- including Arizona Senator John McCain -- have called for his resignation.

Oklahoma Republican Party chairman Gary Jones says Craig definitely should consider quitting.

Tuesday, Craig disclosed at a news conference that he had pleaded guilty to a charge of disorderly conduct after accusations of sexual misconduct were alleged in a report by a Minneapolis police officer this summer.

Craig is a conservative Republican who has fought gay rights legislation.
