Good point. The timing isn't important. But it should be months at most, after this has died down some. But it won't die down completely, and Lott is now compromised.

I agree - Lott will not live this down any time soon. But at least in a few months the Republicans can do it on their terms and not on the Democrats.

This is going to boil before it simmers again. Like it or not, the Lott gave the RATS an issue that they didn't have. They're were deader than a door nail after 11/5, they had a faint pulse when Landrieu won and now...they are feeling very, very STRONG again.
