I promised the Lord that if Bama beat Awburn, then I could live with losing to FL......I’ll cry in my wine, but we’ve won about 5 games more then I thought we would this year...ROLL TIDE

Now, lets rebuild the Florida GOP - yes, we are in control here, but Crist and Martinez aren’t CONSERVATIVE!! (Adam Putnam for Senate!!)

Putnam? He supported the Bail Out Fiasco.

After I told him in an email that he, McCain and the other RINO's had just lost Congress and the Presidency with their support of that bill, he sent me an email covering his butt which was probably written by the DNC.

Never replied to me when I told him his support for it was like a banker standing by watching the bank get robbed. Then holding a gun to my head to make me deposit my savings in his bank. And then making the bank robbers the regulators for the "new" bank.

Putnam can join Martinez on the ash heap of the RINO-led GOP.

As a Florida GOP member, good riddance. And let the conservative rebuilding of the party begin!

Him and Jeb in 2012. :(

Hmmmm. I hadn't thought about that angle. We'll have to wait and see what his reason is for not running/stepping down early.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to make the announcement.

This person needs to be kicked to the curb. I'm sick and tired of folks leaking things to reporters in, I'm sure, a 'suck-up' attempt.

Thanx for the post.That made my day.While the McCain/Kennedy(amnesty bill)was being discussed in DC,i attempted to reach Mel’s office several times to express my extreme displeasure.No one anwsered the phone-he didn’t even have voice mail.Same thing with our other senator(Nelson-Dem)-no one anwsered the phone,but at least he had voice mail,and i was able to leave a message.

I do too....I’m just glad it’s not a night game....thank goodness it’s at 3.....Whether we win or not, this season has been absolutely unbelievable for all us Bama fans who’ve lived through the past 6 years. Kicking Awburn’s butt was suuuuuuweet.....I had a friend (Awburn of course) who e-mailed me today that our guys show no class when they held up 7 fingers (designating their 7 loses) - I said and you’re telling me that you guys holding up 6 last year wasn’t? These people sure have a double standard.....Roll Tide

I had lunch with Mel Martinez and I thought he was one of the most intelligent, articulate, and decent person out of many senators. Thune in particular was a dissapointment. Thune looks great but is less filling than Martinez.

But then, maybe Katherine Harris or Alan Keyes can replace him.

Although I would vote for him, can Alan Keyes get elected anywhere to anything?

It’s interesting how you have shown truly that in politics only perception really counts. The sheeple cannot figure out much else. Lenin once said that the sheeple could not learn music but might be able to remember a couple of lines of a great song.
