Have you read to the end of the thread that #429 links to? I think you may be surprised.

I'll go back and read it, but my original stance is that In My Opinion, Lott or a supporter of his, probably released the resignation story to force some support from the right. It is an effective hardball tactic, so why not float it, especially if it can't be proven back to him. I only wish he played this way AGAINST the Dems.
