Who does the GOP have to blame for it's current woes? Who is the Senate Minority Leader? Will the GOP replace him? Will the GOP ask Trent Lott to step down from Minority Leader? No indeed they will not. Failure has become easier for the GOP to deal with than sucess. If a Conservative were to run for Trent Lotts senate seat would the RNC support the conservative? That is the real issue needing imediate attention. How did the GOP get itself in such a disgusting mess?
Everybody can get as mad at the Dems as they want. But remember the ones selling out to them. When the GOP stops acting like a bunch of whipped puppies and start fighting like a Pit Bull then maybe the respect and strenght will be there again. Right now all Daschle has to do is say jump and the GOP & RNC says yes sir how high. Oh please Mister Daschel don't call us mean spirited Conservatives anymore. Hey people the Mean Spirited Conservative ideas is what got the GOP both houses to start. Blind Guides they are indeed.
Don't blame me
I voted for Kodos
Don Nickles (R-OK) has already announced his intention to challenge Lott for the leadership when the Senate is organized after the 2002 elections.
So true, and it's been that way for so long.
They supported Trent Lott, didn't they? Or are you arguing Trent Lott's voting record isn't conservative (96% in 2001, 100% in 2000, 93% lifetime average). What major votes in the Senate have we been concerned Trent Lott wasn't going to vote the right way?
Don Nickels (R-OK), the #2 man in the GOP Senate leadership, has already announced his candidacy to replace Lott.
My guess is the next Majority Leader of the Senate will be either Nickels or Rick Santorum (PA).
