When Trent Lott ran for Majority Leader, we voted against him. We're proud of it.

For Republican readers who don't yet realize that Trent Lott must go, read Jonah's article. It's the best of the twenty columns on the subject. Then contact your Senator. Jacob Levy has a template letter you can use. Mine's simpler:

Dear Senator,

In election-year 2008, I want to say this about my state: When Trent Lott ran for Majority Leader, we voted against him. We're proud of it. And because the rest of the Senators followed our lead, our party didn't have all these problems over all these years, either.
