I've been reading this post, waiting for someone to figure out that Bush is almost better off without a Republican Senate, unless he has a veto proof majority.

The Republicans will call Lott's bluff, and he will NOT quit the Senate because no one would give him a job elsewhere. Bush does not want Lott as Leader, and he doesnt care of the spectacle the media would make if Lott were to leave anyway. He did fine with Daschle as leader, and anything he didnt get, Daschle got the blame.

Reagan got most of what he wanted with a Democratic Senate, and Bush will do the same if he has to. Let the media laugh, Bush will win in the end, but he wont have to. Lott will step down, and he will shut up about it.

Tell that to Pickering and all the highly qualified judges who got either Borked or voted down in committee. We finally have the chance to fast track dozens of conservative leaning judges--the best opportunity we've had in decades.

Freepers of all people, should recognize what a golden opportunity this is to shape the judiciary in the future.

Lott's not a racist. He's being subjected to political character assassination.
