C'mon Willie man! I was just doing a little ribbing. I know that you normally post articles about companies laying off thousands of workers and such. No personal attack or disrespect intended.

I have it on good authority from a former close Lott staffer that he lost his fire for the job when his very close friend Paul Coverdell died. He told me he has never been the same. I agree it is time for Lott to step aside, we need a strong leader.

It would be far easier to regain the majority if Lott wasn't involved.
