The second is that I wonder if as big of a deal will be made about this in the national press as was made of Trent Lott's comments about Strom Thurmond. If there's a big to-do made about this maybe the press isn't as biased as some believe. If there's not, well, perhaps it is.

Having sat through a lot of speeches, the jokes that seem to work the best are the self-deprecating ones.
I was wondering where this was going.  You do realize that you are linking to CNN, widely known as a bastion of conservative thought.
