Whoops and...whoops: "Responding to Sen. Trent Lott's (R-MS) suggestion that Senate Republicans had the necessary votes to invoke the so-called nuclear option and that such a step was necessary, Fox News anchor David Asman asked Lott why Republican senators had compromised on the issue," writes Media Matters. "Why compromise, Asman asked, "if we should have done it and if we had the votes to do it [audio here]" Asman clarified that it was 'you guys in the Republican party' who had the votes."
