If you think Chaffee and Snow will bolt, let them. We will get the Senator from Georgia in return--and perhaps another from the South.

Further, you can have McCain, as well.

LOOK: this is NOT a question of political power. It is a question of RIGHT AND WRONG. TrenchLott is WRONG.

Further, if you can't see past political power to the national interest, then YOU are part of the problem.

"LOOK: this is NOT a question of political power."

With all respect, of course it is.

If we don't have more Republicans in the Senate, then Daschle---and not the President---sets the agenda.

It's ALWAYS about political power.
