He probably did do that, but it's beside the point. Lott can represent his state all he wants. He has no right to represent my party as Senate Majority Leader.
Then your complaint is much different than what Lott's detractors are saying. In fact, some senators have already said that he could "win fogiveness" by supporting things like a minimum wage hike, housing subsidies, etc.
This isn't even about Lott anymore -- it's simply another tactic in pushing a left-wing agenda. At least they're consistent, though . . . It doesn't matter if you lynched black people in Alabama last week, as long as you toe the Democratic Party line this week.
