Krauthammer, once again, on Trent Lott:
A man who has no use--let alone no feel--for colorblindness has no business being a leader of the conservative party.

There is a principle at stake here. Better to lose the Senate than to lose your soul. New elections come around every two years. Souls are scarcer.
