Trent Lott's statement at Strom Thurmond's celebration reflect the ideas of many southern whites, especially the good ol' boys. His apology should be taken with a grain of salt because he only apologized after being reprimanded by African Americans.
Good ol' boy himself, George Dubya, surprised the heck out of me with his harsh criticism of Lott. If Trent Lott does make it past the holiday season as Senate Majority Leader, I think he'll be able to save his behind.
I just think the uproar will be over in the coming months and politics will go.
