A Lott of corruption

When Republicans lost control of Congress in the 2006 mid-term election and scandal-scarred Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist went back home to Tennessee, the party of the elephant had a chance to prove it could learn from its mistakes and correct the corrupt abuses of the past.



Instead, the party turned to one of its most corrupt, disgraced former majority leader Trent Lott, as its new minority whip in the Senate.



Lott's re-emergence as a power broker in the GOP showcases how Republicans still believe in the old-boy system and couldn't care less about reform, decency or rule of law.
