The non-presence of the base in 2000 ultimately cost us the Senate.

And Trent Lott's "Henry don't bring your trash over here," remark is what kept a lot of that base at home.

I was one of the loudest screaming at the third party conservatives in 2000. I'll still vote for Bush, but I won't be screaming in 2004.

That was AFTER the GOP got their butts kicked for impeaching a popular President in 1998. Trent had spine in 1995--until he got his butt kicked a few dozen times with no support from the base. He could've had spine had the base turned out in 1998--but he saw that it would be wasted effort.
