Most of this board have never liked Lott's leadership inability. Power share with the Democrats waa a major mistake. Then they didn't hold out for getting votes on judges.
Tom is a darn good senator but not a very good leader.
Hopefully First will be a better leader.
At this point it doesn't matter though because Lottt's believes on segaration have no place in todays political areana. This is fine though as long as he is not the Leader.
Power sharing lasted about 5 months while the senate was 50/50.... after that the Democrats were the majority and controlled with no power sharing as was the agreement. Not sure about how you get judges approved when you don't control the committees...
Tom.... who is Tom, that darn good senator?
