Perhaps but the WH folk definitely did NOT care at all for Trent Lott. Guess they thought he was "too independent."
Actually, I believe that Frist did exactly what the WH wanted even though it appeared not to be the case publically.

He publicly celebrated and gloated over some of our defeats. Personally, I think the old Dixiecrat might have threatened to switch parties to the Dims if they hadn't given him the #2 slot. I'm not kidding. He's a snake. Well, a smooth political snake but still...
The White House was smart to oppose Lott.
