Sarge,

A lot of people don't think of the ship building influence Trent Lott controls. Earlier this summer he stonewalled a contract to a Northeast builder until he got a significant share sent to Mississippi yards. At the time I was not following FGH therefore I do not know which yard got that contract, however it would not suprise me at all to find Hollaway as a major Lott backer. With proper backing, Lott will always ensure Mississippi's share of ship building.
