That move by Trent Lott was not a bad idea.
The real concern on both sides was that the Senate could have changes hands a total of 3 times from Election Day to next January. Consider the following scenario: 1) Talent takes Carnahan's seat immediately, and gives control to the Republicans; 2) Jesse Ventura appoints a Democrat to fill Wellstone's seat; and 3) Republicans win control of the Senate on Election Day, but this doesn't take effect until January. Beyond that, it was possible that the final control of the Senate in January would not be decided until the December run-off in Louisiana.
That agreement between Lott and Daschle wasn't because of a lack of backbone on either side -- it was to avoid the potential chaos that would have resulted if the Senate changed hands multiple times between Election Day and January 1st.

We're going to have a field day with Hillary. The more she opens her
mouth the more the general public can see her for what she really is.
Anybody think she was really praying to God at the Wailing Wall?

The senate minority (oh, how nice that sounds) would confer those duties, not Trent Lott, even though he is worthless.

Thats the way I see it folks,liberal democrats are seeing their own immoral acts as wrong,and voting republican because of the guilt feelings they have,anyone care to comment? I think it's simpler than that. They watched 3000 of their countrymen killed on 9/11/01, and then watched as the left recoiled from the patriotic outpouring. They saw who sided with our country, and who sided with Saddam, the detainees, Johnny bin Walker, and alQueda.
They heard W. say you're either with us or against us, and they saw who was against us...

Okay, but my point was, why would the daschhle dogpile confer upon her such honor unless the FBI files she holds would give her power to blackmail a quisling like Lott.

"Nobody better understands the resources that the Right has mustered to clobber Democrats," a Democratic source told the Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call. "From the money to the media manipulation, she gets it." She's got control of the DNC by being their biggest money raiser.....that's what she uses the DC house for.....raising money for other RATs so they are indebted to her.
She's building a group that owes her and who will support her presidential bid in 2008. Most media outlets except FNC are liberals & will only give her 'soft ball' questions. She'll never agree to an interview with Hume, O'Reilly or anyone she cannot control.
She's always a danger because there are women who will vote for her to be prez just because she's a woman. I would never underestimate her ability to get herself elected. She's focused, ruthless and craves power.....God help America if she ever becomes prez!

The move could tilt the party, which is in disarray after its stunning defeats in this month's mid-term elections, further to the Left...more like, further toward the sewer...

But Senator John Breaux of Louisiana, a Right-wing Democrat, said Mrs Clinton's appointment would shift the party too far too the LeftNo, it wouldn't. She's smarter than that. Don't underestimate this woman. She wants to be President.

Don't worry, he's going on a book "tour," but that don't mean people are buying. Don't worry about sales, Buddhist monks will buy them all if they have to.

Those accusations aren't paranoid. There is a conspiracy. I know. I am a long-time conspirator. I want her and her 'husband' crushed and out of politics. Financial ruin would be OK.
To: MamaLucci
"I hope ALL the rats take her political advice just like Tiny Tom has"....you know, this power hungry lady might just dismantle the rat party all by herself!

BB, Hillary is going to use Nancy Pelosi to carom herself off toward the Center, in other words, Hillary is going to move right.
It's friggin' brilliant! Within our lifetimes, BB we may see this bitch move from defending Black Panthers to become the candidate of a new Evangelical Monarchist Family Values Center Right Coalition ... at least that's what she'll call it.
People moving toward the right? Evita Eleanor H. Clinton be movin right on over with them.
To: blam
It is less then a stretch to believe that some twisted mind in the liberal/socialist cult thinks that Nancy and Hillary are going to "win" ..."female" vote...
If you can swallow that (excuse the refrence), doesn't that make them (Nancy and Hill) prostitutes...?
Oops...I think that was Hooker hate speach.... ;-0
