Yes, Strom was a racist when he was a Dixiecrat, but when he joined the Republican party, his racist beliefs began to fade. He was the first southern senator to hire a black staff member. He voted to expand equal rights. The man admitted that his previous views on segregation were wrong. How is he such a bad person? He admitted his mistakes!
For all you Strom haters, what do you think of Senator Robert Byrd? He was a member of the KKK. He recently used n***** in a not too appropriate way. Trent Lott ain't bad compared to Byrd.
