This explains why Lott did nothing to help Woody Jenkins gain the Senate seat from LA in 1996. Instead, Breaux’s candidate, Mary Landrieu, was seated under questionable circumstances where the dead leaped from New Orleans graves to cast ballots.

I guess in that 1 percent were Jesse Helms and Tom Coburn, but he has been strangely quiet for months now.

This Baker seat is ripe for Democrat turnover, as liberals have been flooding into East Baton Rouge Parish, which elected a Democrat sheriff for the first time in 24 years in 2007.

Lott and Breaux Open Bipartisan Lobbying Firm

Translation: "We don't care who we whore ourselves out to, as long as you're paying us enough..."

Sort of like Jody Foster's character in "Inside Man."

I’m thinking a better name for the Lott-Breaux lobbying firm would be “Brott-Leaux”.

I understand what you are saying but what keeps me from voting democratic are their positions on life and foreign policy - they are a complete anathema to me. Oh, you said: sleep with the same women - you forgot to add men too, just a sidebar on today’s society./Just Asking - seoul62.......

Is there a worse Republican than Trent Lott?

Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Chuck Hagel, Lincoln Chafee...Trent may have been a spineless wimp most of the time, but he was a conservative, for the most part.

I thought that was implied with the foot tapping/bathroom stall comment.

I cant vote dem either but until the conservatives field their own candidate and do not get drunk on the power of DC.( Politicians are aphrodisiacs in DC) we will have politicians corrupted over and over again.

The problem is anyone willing to run should be immediately put under suspicion just because they are seeking office.

Ummmmm...yep.

At least he had about a 93% lifetime rating on ACU.
