I agree with that assessment entirely.
Now could you apply that same logic to the Majority leader?
No. If Lott decides to quit on his own, or he calls for a vote of confidence on his own then I'm fine with either of those.
I'm disappointed in what Wes Pruden has called, and I'm adopting, the "canonized conservatives" who are using their pique over impeachment to lock arms with the Maxine Waters and Elijah Cummings to essentially brand Lott a racist and run him out of town.
