Now we'll have to see what happens with 1) the election date stand-off between Attorney General Jim Hood and Haley Barbour 2) who Haley nominates to fill the vacancy.
Thoughts? Comments?
This quote was from earlier in the week, but it was too great not to share.
During the Senate floor ceremony, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., praised Lott as a colleague who keeps his word and works across party lines.
“I don’t want to damage his reputation in Mississippi to have one of the more liberal members of the opposite party praise him,” Leahy joked.
I bet Barbour picks the safe conventional pick, Roger Wicker. I would hope (b/c I love political drama) that he surprises us all with a choice no one thought of!!
