Trent Lott made a remark that might on a stretch have hinted that in some part of his mind, he thought maybe segregation (letting people of different races live and pursue their ends -- just separately) might be an okay thing.

For what she said, Nancy Pelosi will... what? What will happen to her, and her party?

She'll be given a testimonial dinner.
Easy. Pelosi=slave to her party=principle on back burner=power and position worth killing for.
