Sen. Trent Lott is being coy about whether he'll run for minority whip in the GOP leadership elections slated for Wednesday. But while Lott plays his cards close to his vest, his presumptive rival, Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., has already declared himself the winner.

Just Say No To Lott.

[Jeff Chandler]

Minority Whipped.

[baiamonte]

For crying out loud, not Lott! He's an idiot, and doesn't have the guts to stand up to the Dem's. Please not him.

[zendari]

Coburn should do it.

[freekitty]

Say no to Alexander too.

[floridareader1]

I am thinking Lott would be better than LaMar Alexander, no?

Now what was wrong with Lot. Seems like we have been there done that before.

[beaversmom]

I think Lamar Alexander is supposed to be just as bad if not worse.

Alexander says he'll be whip

Geez, now I have a picture in my mind of Lamar in a dominatrix outfit!

[dfwgator]

He makes Bob Michel look like a bulldog in comparison.

' Seems like we have been there done that before"

LOL. Thats just the point. We have been there and done that.

Did u know his hair has been rated to withstand a CAT 4 Hurricane?

[onyx]

He's the best, IMO.

Articulate and likable.

[meyer]

Say no to Alexander too.

Agreed - he's a bit of a tree hugger.

[capt. norm]

Have we still not learned our lesson about these guys.

I'd like to see some young blood come in and replace these old "deal makers".

[red meat conservative]

The house will elect great leadership. Its the Senate that got us into this problem and will continue to be a cancer to concervatives.
We must look for two qualities in a leader. Uncompromising conservatism and a tough personality to stand up to the terroristic tactics of the Dems. McConnel is lacking the tough personality and Alexander is lacking both. I believe that he voted for amnesty. John Kyle and Tom Coburn would be better.

[Natural Law]

The Republicans have shown no ability to act as or use either the majority or minority Whip positions. I have never seen renegade senators (i.e.; McCain, Chaffee, or Spectre) stripped of committee positions or chairmanships, reassigned to least favorable office space and accommodations, or had their operating budgets curtailed. Whoever it is won't make a bit of difference until the leadership grows a pair.

[Bahbah]

Lott, the king of pork. Alexander will just bore everyone to death. This is the best we can do?
