Sounds like the right thing to do. I am struck by Lottbots who act as though Trent was conservatism personafied before this lastest incident.
I was very disappointed that his ML position was rammed through in a whirlwind after Nov 5. This lastest screw up was just the last straw in my opinion.
Well I do understand why many have stuck by Lott on this one issue, but it is not because of his conservatism .. he bends over to many times to the left
I don't think Lott is a racist, but if he resigns then that is the message that will be sent ..
I am one of those that think Lott should not step down because of what the left THINK he meant. The Thought Police will not stop if Lott steps down. They will come after Republicans even more so and will get even nastier .. that you can count on.
I can't speak for others, but I am sick and tired of the left attacking us as evil racist republicans. I am sick of saying oh well, just another attack.
I want it to stop, I want the race baiting to end but this will never happen as long as we don't take some kind of a stand
With all that said, I do realize that Lott's political career as ML is pretty much over, I really don't know how he can survive this.
However, we as a party need to realize also what could happen and be prepared .. because the Left is not going to back off
