[VOYAGER]

Trent Lott, in a conference call with 27 GOP Senate Republicans today, said that he would leave the Senate if forced from the Leader position.

If he said this in a childish fit of hurt feelings, which at first glance he did,in my opinion, he should be on the way out of town with a fully paid one way ticket back to old Miss post haste.

A full grown man with this kind of childish attitude has not the ability to lead.

He did not say it. Look at my #1002. The Washington Post specifically denies he was on the conference call.

And, as this other article from the Washington Post suggests ( Lott Faces Continuing Resentment From Conservatives ,) the ComPost is delighted with the opposition Lott is facing from conservatives.
