Didn't "Chester Lott" pull the same stunt?

Wasn't it about time between being in the Senate and going to the Lobbyist side on "K Street"?

IMHO this is probably about the "Benjamin s"....

Crist appoints Jeb Bush, sending Bush to the Senate to set up his run at the WH in 2012, and Crist for Senate.

Final act, flipping his finger to this republic, with his vote for the wise latina......

Surely there was no racial motivation, right?

I didn’t know he was a Republican.

Always through he was a Democrat.

Same as McQueeg, it always surprises me when I hear him called “the Republican Senator.”

It’s some kind of cultural dissonance.

” Can anyone confirm or deny this report? “

FNC just reported “Martinez will not be returning to the Senate at the end of the August Recess..”

Don’t know if that qualifies as ‘confirmation’, but it’s out there....

Someone must have some good dirt on the RINO.

Martinez has generated his own mud pit as a RINO.

Theory = Jeb Bush will be appointed. Skeletons in Crist closet, would not make it through the senate race giving the rats a pick up.

Shouldn’t Crist appoint Marco Rubio....I mean, it’s a “Latin seat” isn’t it? (For those outside Fla., Rubio is running for senate against Crist).
