Lott's downfall began in December 2002, at the 100th birthday party for Thurmond of South Carolina, who was longtime segregationist and the 1948 Dixiecrat candidate for president. "I want to say this about my state," Lott began in tribute. "When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over the years, either."

The senator apologized for his "poor choice of words," emphasizing that he was not embracing "discarded policies of the past."

But the damage was done, with President George W. Bush declaring that the senator's remarks "do not reflect the spirit of this country."

So Lott stepped aside, blaming his setback on some Republicans as well as Democrats. In the years that followed, he made little secret of his bitterness, at one point suggesting that the White House consider "bringing in some new people," an unsubtle jab at Karl Rove, the president's political strategist who had helped engineer Lott's removal.
