Lott has to stay on message when the reporters approach him for a sound bite. One word of compliment about the service and that will be the 'antidote' to the criticism of tonight's memorial.
He should say 'it's up to the people who watched to decide'.
BTW - was Jean Carnahan there? If so, I missed her.
Perhaps some of the MN backlash will rub off on her.

I would hope the cable news networks (especially Fox) set aside a lot of time later today to show some of the more outrageous clips from the pep rally. And we'll have to see what treatment this gets on the three broadcast network morning shows.
If this does backfire with an American public that always tells pollsters we should all just get along, I see this having a positive impact on GOP get-out-the-vote efforts NATIONWIDE.

Did Norm Coleman go to the memorial service?

Oh it will. Jim Talent lost his father over the weekend. Unlike in 2000 when Ashcroft quit campaigning for 10 days the widow said she was sorry but continued on the campaign. TALK ABOUT NO CLASS!!!!

You asked if Carnahan were there. No,
she was busy campaigning while Talent
suspended his, to mourn the sudden
death of his 90 yr. old father.
