Like I said earlier about the republicans, since Bush and Powell slammed our Christian leaders we have had nothing but losses since and this is going to be the biggest one.

Kiss the senate goodbye, if you are all allowed to tarnish Lott who will be next? So be it.

God does have a sense of humour!

I'm sure that Carville and Hillary knows who will be next. Cranking up the ole' fax machine as we speak.

I agree with you completely on Bush and Powell. Their vicious attacks on our nation's Christian leaders was very disturbing. Bush has also been very vocal and public in his condemnation of Trent Lott. However, I'm not sure I disagree with his critique of Lott who has tarnished himself. There is nothing that I or others can do to tarnish him further. The best way to remedy the scandal sparked by his remarks is to resign and cut a deal for the Commerce Committee Chairmanship where no one would complain about him or use his image to defeat Republicans and overturn GOP control of both houses of Congress in the next election cycle.

If you truly support continued GOP control of Congress beyond 2004, you will join the effort to encourage a challenge to his leadership from the Christian right--Don Nickles--a man you have condemned as some kind of traitor to what we do not know. Nickles is a champion of Christian conservative principles and will not wimpily comply with Daschle's wishes as Lott oftentimes has, nor will he roll over and play dead when Bush is pushing a bad policy against conservative ideals. Lott will not resign this session although he may announce his resignation to take effect at the end of the 107th Congress to allow time for a special election to replace him. Of course, that crisis is resolved by making him Commerce Committee Chairman and providing him a graceful exit as I have long advocated.
