Lott is looking pathetic. You know, sometimes you just have to take your lumps.
As I mentioned on another thread, Lott's excuse for only passing out written statements, and doing the over the phone interviews was that he was too busy vacationing in Boca Raton, which doesn't have a tv station with a satellite uplink.
Lott so misjudged his need to be on air, contrite, out forward, that he was unwilling to drive 45 miles to Miami, to be able to address this issue. That is the distance to a tv station with satellite uplinks. His vacation was more important.
Hubris is what is going to get him.
