Louisiana unfortunately just elected a Republican Governor. Could that be of any assurance to Republican loons?

Letâ€™s hope not.

The reason that happened is that BushCo managed to ethnically cleanse Louisiana of African Americans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Disaster capitalism (thanks Naomi Klein) at work: privatize the state (126 public schools in NOLA before Katrina, 4 now, with the rest private) and turn it red at the same time through ethnic cleansing. Bonus for the GOP in the 2008 election.

I wonder if they’ll replace gay-boy Trent Lott with another republican c**ksucker? Is there any other kind of republican?

Maybe Trent Lott is retiring so he’ll have more time to march in gay pride parades across the country! Go girl!

Lottâ€™s seat is safe from ANY Democrat.

Of course, which is why Mississippi always places near the bottom in state educational rankings.

If Sen. Lott resigns effective this year and Gov. Barbour still names a replacement the Senate should refuse to seat that replacement citing Mississippi law. Since the law is rather clear Barbour would be forced to back down and call a special election.

It makes no difference when they hold the elections. The racist, I mean, republic party is entrenched in that state like a noose in a tree.

Tracy2: “Lottâ€™s seat is safe from ANY Democrat.”

Right. Like I said, will the voters of Mississippi ever learn? I’m guessing no, especially if you’re representative of Mississippi-style thinking.

Barbour, being a repub, doesn’t care about election law. Neither does Lott and whichever repub that tries to takes his spot. They’ll do whatever they want. Bush has transformed this country from a Nation of Laws into a Procrastination of Laws.

Benjamin Nicholas at http://www.bigheaddc.com/ indicates he was Trent Lott’s gay lover.

“Nicholas told Big Head DC today via e-mail that he didnâ€™t want to go on the record to talk about his dealings with Lott, because, said Nicholas, â€œTrent is going through his fair share of scrutiny right now and I donâ€™t want to add to it.â€ However, e-mail and other records confirm that the two have met on at least two occasions.”

Hey Mississippi voters: that’s what you get for voting for another corrupt Repub. Repubs have been using your racism and playing you like cheap fiddles for 40 years now. Will you ever learn?

#4, #5 The governor can appoint an interim senator, but most hold a special election within a certain period of time specified by law.
