"When the foibles of Clinton were exposed, the entire Democratic Party defended him."

Yes, and they got away with it because they had a sympathetic media on their side. Moreover, Clinton's "foibles" were sexual, and the Dems succeeded in turning that around and making Kenneth Starr, the "sex-obsessed prude," the "right-wing religious zealot," the bad guy. There is no way the Republicans can spin this to make Lott's critics the bad guys, and any talk about Senator Byrd's former KKK affiliations will fall on deaf ears. Lott is quite simply a dumb-ass for putting himself and the Republican Party into this position.

Well, I see your brainwashing has been completed.
