So we get Mr. "I don't want to hear from porkbusters" Lott. This is most unfortunate. If we get the same in the House, I won't have a party at all.

He's not the MAJORITY WHIP; he's a backstabber.

This is fine, he shouldn't have stepped aside the first time.

Of course not. Those racism allegations were ridiculous. But the fact remains, Lott is a pussy and shouldn't be selected for positions of power.

Senate Republicans finally understand that they can still get their paychecks and perks, without the burden and responsibility that comes with the majority.

Get ready for another decade in the wilderness. Trent has scores to settle, so he is getting ready to bend over and "compromise" on your behalf.

Hey, maybe if we are lucky, he will whip out that stupid hat again? I just hope to get a cigarette and a kiss after what Trent is going to do to us.

Betcha Collins and Snowe voted for him.

And guess what? When it comes time to make TV appearances, the networks will invite Lott instead of McConnell. As God is my witness, you know I am right.

And then they will bring up that racism charge all over again.

We have to take the party back, just as the Netroots did with the DNC.

The netroots didn't take back jack. The Dem leadership is just as corrupt and concerned with their own power and perks as ours is.

PD, do you happen to know who was running against him? The only way I could take this if his opposition was someone like Voinovich.
