He's either an idiot, or he's working for them.

Trent Lott is supposed to be a politician of considerable gravitas, he is the leader of the majority party in the house of the people.

His careless quips have put the GOP's agenda in jeopardy, and the agenda is far more important than the man.

I am not willing to save Lott and lose Pickering, and it is evident that to save Lott from his lot, the GOP will have to ante up a little bit of its recently gained power and hand it over to the other side of the isle.

Lott is supposed to be better than this, he's not some freshman congressman from Yeehaw Junction, he is a major player in some rather serious games.

He should measure out every word he utters, and consider the ramnifications of careless quips before stepping up to the podium.

He didn't..so stick a fork in him, he's done.

He has become a liability to Bush.

Sorry Luis but Bush was the one that stuck him.

Yet, he wants an opportunity for on-the-job training to shed his racial cluelessness... with a thin Senate majority... a rare GOP trifecta in the Executive and Legislative Branches... the next decade or two of the Supreme Court at stake... while jeopardizing the GOP's chances in 2004... in wartime.

I look at this debate and on the other side I see, "it's not fair, we can't cave to the Democrats on this."

I guess our priorities are all messed up, Luis.
