I disagree. I think HE should suggest he step down as leader for the good of the republican party. Then I think he should be put on the appropriations committee as chair opposite Byrd. Talk about cutting the legs out from under the dems. Oh yeah, and I think the pubbies should elect the most conservative guy they can find as leader. Lott, if he handles it right, can end up in a great position, re-hab his image, look gracious and generous, and make all the ravaging mob look stupid. IF he has the backbone to do this and the smarts to handle it properly.

You've got the best idea - only the Dems are wanting him to resign from the Senate altogether. Lott has been a dreadful majority leader. He would be much better on the appropriations committee. It would be the best thing he could do for the GOP for his home state constituency.
