I doubt anyone is twisting Lott to do anything. Lott is bulletproof, and honestly, so is Cochran. The only way you get into political trouble in MS these days is by questioning whether the affected areas have recieved too much relief, or by defending insurance company actions in the wake of Katrina...those things are political suicide, as the state’s insurance commissioner is about to find out. Other than that, these two are in office till they want to retire.
I don’t know if that is true about those two here in North Mississippi.
Desoto county is growing mainly from conservative people getting away from Memphis TN. It’s in the top 30 counties in growth nationwide. We hear mainly TN news, and with Corker and Alexander going no cloture, that won’t help provide any fire insurance on Lott and Cochran.
