Lindsey says, "If I'm wrong, I'll take my lickin'."
He may have no clue of what he's talking about...
He still thinks that he can get away with this by "taking a licking", presumably in the press, on the Internet and on talk radio. It's like he doesn't believe that he's vulnerable on his re-election campaign.
Lindsey, you've got 2 years to find yourself a little sweetheart deal working for some lobbyist firm, because you are done in the Senate. Good luck, traitor.
