Congeries of cross connected concepts
Because Orin Judd is on the case and Instantman is all over it with many posts (and more on the way), I have to comment on Trent Lott. I think the Trent Lott should be desposed as Senate majority leader. I think his remark was offensive, but frankly not really that big a deal. However, the remark does provide a convenient excuse because Lott's job performance stinks. As many have said, he's politically tone and completely incapable of competing with the leadership of the opposition party. Plus, the Republicans could then dump on Byrd for his remark.
