Here is Nickle's chance to stand up for Republicans and prove he'll be a better ML than Lett.

I guess the only workable solution is to expell all the former Confederate States from the Union!

YES! I vote for that. Now you are going to see the flood gates open, what they want is for a democract to take Lotts place and being from MS I can tell you the rumors are flying that Lott is going to resign not only from leader ship but from the Senate. He will come home and run for gov. The biggest mistake the republicans can make, give it back to Dashel.

Now the civil rights "community" want to equate votes against their pet issues with racism. Thanks a Lott.

This is why it is bad if Lott steps down. Backing down to these race-baiting winnies just gives them power.

I am telling you freepers, Lott isn't the problem but racist rats are and the liberal press. Lott is this weeks dinner and next week its who ever we would favor always has been and always will be. Either we stand with Lott as a force or each one of us and who we would choose is the target, its the nature of the beast! Liberal commie democrats beast that is.

Lott will become "yesterday's news" if he steps aside. And Lott started this.

I guess the only way to please them is to have all of our Republican senators become RATS.

drudge said maybe if we just hang Lott on Tv tonight it would help.

He would win handily, wouldn't he?

Yet, we've been being told all day that Lott would be "finished" if he quit the party.

A governor ain't "finished."

This is Rove and Bush deal. They have learned nothing from Jeffords. If bush wanted to hang on to the senate all he had to do was bring Trent to the white house for an on camera press conference. There is the crap about Lott not handling it well. Bush is the captain of the team.. He has over and over demanded Republicans play as a team. But bush hid and let the Democrats take the game.

I would be very surprised if Lott stays in the senate. I would be even more surprised if Snowe stays a republican. Perhaps Chaffee would leave too.

This is the single bigest political miscalculation by a president in my life time. Bush is making Carter look good.

If I were running the Democratic media in 2004, I would run negative ads against bush for not defending a Southern Boy for being southern about Strom Thurman. If Lott just chose to be as neutral as Bush is now, Bush would never get a second term. Loyalty is huge in the South. Rove and Bush do not have a clue. But if you give me the ad funds I could keep a million red necks home and not voting for Bush in 2004. That is enough to elect a Democrat President.

You don't suppose that has occured to Bubba do you? Bubba may not be much but he does understand the South.

A win-win situation would be for Lott to yield the ML position to Nickles, then remain in the Senate until he wins the MS gov's race and appoints a Republican successor to his Senate seat.

And now your hero is going to grovel on BET. This is getting sad. I am beginning to pity this man. But he is going to hurt the conservative cause even more because he will become super-PC in order to "atone" for his "sins"

Alternatively, if Lott really wants to fight for his position, he just has to call for reparations to blacks.....that would really but the GOP over the ole barrel, eh?

You continue to list Snowe as a likely switcher... a Republican with a lifetime ACU score of 51. Somewhat mystified.
