That's the only reason the Republicans introduce minorities... they nominate minorities who are far to the right and then try to make the Democrats look bad when they try to block a minority candidate.

Exactly that was on Trent Lott's mind yesterday when he made the following statement: "``There are a lot more people -- men, women and minorities -- that are more qualified in my opinion by their experience than she is,'' Lott said."
