I don't quite follow...does this mean anyone who votes for one of the other politicians who were pro-segregation in the past is also supporting segregation? What evidence other than interpreting his statement a certain way do you have that Lott currently holds segregationist tendencies? Legislation? Voting record? What evidence do you have that other old Southern politicians have really lost their segregationist tendencies?

This is of course, getting silly. The whole objective of this, of course, is to render Lott useless as Majority Leader since the Democrats want to do whatever they can to ensure that the Republican Senate is a non-starter.
