Trent Lott to Resign His Seat?
According to this report Trent Lott is expected to announce he is going to resign his senate seat before the end of the year.
He was not an effective Majority/Minority leader but is an excellent number two man for the party in the Senate.
What happened to him when he was tossed under the bus for being kind to a 100 year old man who used to be a segregationist, but claimed to have renounced it, was a shameful day for our party. Robert Byrd, anyone? A former member of the KKK? He’s still there and no one ran him out of anything.
If this story is correct I wish Mr. Lott happiness in his future endeavors.

I will be interested to hear the Senator himself explain the reason for his resignation.
Sadly he was not only villified in the press and by the Democrats but by his own party after the Strom Thurmond incident.
I wish both the Senator and his family only the best.
