Re: Sen. Lott reportedly set to resign
[ QUOTE ]
Keep in mind that Hastert crushed his last opponent even though: - There was a huge national Democratic wave - Hastert was in the middle of Foleygate which was peaking at the time - His opponent was actually able to raise money and put effort into the campaign. So yeah, that district is safe until at least the next redistricting. [/ QUOTE ] The speaker of the house would never lose his spot unless he was about to go to jail IMO.

Re: Sen. Lott reportedly set to resign
There's another possibility being reported about Lott's reason for resigning. His brother-in-law, Dickie Scruggs, had his legal office raided by the FBI the other day. It is alleged he participated in rampant fraud over Hurricane Katrina insurance claims. Scruggs made a fortune on the tobacco settlement (extortion) partly because of his connection to Lott. Lott and Scruggs...hopefully they both go down.
