Those who get it, get it. Those who don't, never will, because it is a matter of ego instead of integrity for them. They want to avoid losing, regardless of the hypocrisy of supporting Lott after all this has gone down.

Lott is going to leave, I stand by my prediction that he is out by tomorrow.

Well said, sabertooth.

"I want to say this about my state: When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either."

~Trent Lott - December, 2002

Why deny the fact the Mississippi voted for Thurmond? I don't see anything racist on Lott's statement and he has apologized for any "racist" implication his statement might've had. Lott has already said that segregation and racism are immoral, a "stain on our nation's soul" and "one of the lowest moments in our nation's history." Since GW is making endless efforts to attract blacks and especially Hispanics, no one could believe that the GOP is a Party of racists. We have endless threads at FR regarding how GW should stop attracting Hispanics.

I don't jump to the Liberal game of gotcha! The Democrats are looking for any excuse to regain power. It's just too bad that some of us can't see it and let their dislike for Lott take over.

At the very least, Lott sure has made a bad start to the upcoming new GOP controlled Senate. Sheesh !!
