So why didn't Lott's advisor Dick Morris tell him that his words would be used against him? It seems reasonable that as an advisor to Mr. Lott, he could have warned him years ago that keeping company with certain people and voicing some specific words could hurt you. This has been my biggest problem with Mr. Lott, where he sought his advice.

It was reasonable for Lott to think his words would not be controversial, because he had been saying much the same thing for years without anybody complaining. That's evidenced by the lack of reaction on the part of the reporters who were there and heard him. A couple of weeks later, Bob Schieffer of CBS (no right-winger he) apologized for not covering the story by saying he had dozed off (yeah, sure!) and that the words were part of Lott's Strom schtick.
