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.

If Lott isn't replaced as majority "leader" (while somehow being convinced to stay in the Senate), can I say, "I told you so," when another power-"sharing" agreement is offered when the Senate is gaveled to session, and again when John McCain leaves the Republican Party to give Tom Daschle another illegitimate "majority"?

BTW, I've already freely acknowledged that if Lott is forced all the way out of the Senate, Daschle will virtually-immediately become the illegitimate "majority" leader.
