I didn't mean to infer that Jeffords and Smith were alike -- what I did want to say is that LOTT took the Chairmanship from Inhofe who was in line and gave it to Smith for coming back in the Party. This was all about LOTT and giving in when he didn't have to!

My mistake - While I wanted to make the point about the difference between Senator Smith and Jeffords, I saw the point of your first post and just forgot to acknowledge it before making my points. I should have been clearer, and I'm sorry about that. On your actual point, I agree completely. It's unfortunate that while the GOP needed a Moses, we've been stuck with a Lott.
