If Lott steps aside over something as insignificant as this, then I hope he leaves the Senate altogether. May as well. He'll just go from a racist Majority Leader to a racist Senator from Mississippi, and will be dogged for the remainder of his time in the Senate

It's not often I can agree with every thing you post in a reply but this is an instance where we're singing from the same book. This entire issue is garbage. Is anyone ever going to stand up to these race pimps and make them back down??? Lott explained himself completely on Hannitty today...he apologized to every human beiong on the planet and that's that. If I were him I'd simply refuse to discuss it any longer.

Lotts latest statement was close to the mark and warrants serious discussion.

But, caving during the 'impeachment', and supporting the B52 woman pilot that raped a non com are two examples of going beyond the pale.

Someone just mentioned Sen. Frist, sounds viable at this point.

Common Tator has pointed out on another thread that Lott would have another choice that would allow him to stay in the Senate and remain relevant. If he returned to the DemocRATs and brought one other senator along with him, he would continue to be a senator in the majority, and no doubt he would be rewarded with a juicy chairmanship.

He's not up for reelection until 2006, by the way.
