GeekPol's evil twin

Daily Kos engages in a little 'what if' regarding Trent Lott. Upshot is that Lott could be pushed out of the Senate altogether for various reasons. Since Mississippi has a D governor, the possibility of Dem Senate control again is not out of the question.

I think Lott is enough a partisan to do stick around though. I think Lott will do what David Durenberger (R-unethical) did when he was denounced by the Senate for his business dealings and stay as a back-bencher until the end of his term, when, hopefully for America, Lott will just go away. After all, it's not as if the balance of power in the House was at stake when Newt bellyflopped in '98 and Bob Livingston was about to be outed by Larry Flynt soon afterward.

Did I mention that you should be reading The Daily Kos every day?
