As much as you hate to think it, Lott may just have to get a vote or two from a Jeffords to get some items passed, and that would piss you off, wouldn't it? I guess that would make him weak.

No, it's one thing to play politics, it's another to publicly pander to someone who stabbed you in the back. It shows a lack of self esteem on Lott's part. He should make Jeffords court him, he IS, after all, the Senate Majority Leader. He is afraid however to act like it. Jeffords gets nothing in the Senate without his say-so, and he doesn't need to kiss that Judas' ass.
