By quit, I meant resign from the Senate.

Well, let's put it this way...If there's a tinfoil hat aspect to this mess, I could see ol' Trent being persuaded to quit since the Dems efforts at weaking him, with Lott's own able assistance, have clearly gone too far. The only way the Dems can now make hay is to try to force him out completely and get another Senate seat under their control. If that happens, I could see at least one Dem Senator who's had a bellyful changing his party affiliation.
