He must be in trouble.

Is he quitting so that he can retain his (royalty type) 'benefits' from the senate before he is indicted or something?

I don't trust any of these bastards anymore, R or D.

Jeb’s further aspirations died when he didn’t save Terri Schiavo. “An honest man” and a true Catholic would have stopped her unholy execution at all costs.

Who does something like this? Resign from the United States Senate with essentially no "notice"? This guy is so pathetic. He is one of the worst senators Florida has ever elected from either party. And then there was his putrid stint as party chairman...that was the period when the GOP basically lost its way. Good riddance, el senor Martinez. Vaya con carne.

Caesar Romero was a closet-queen. All that suave, debonair, Latin lover stuff was all for show.

Just mentioned on Fox News

Senator Illegal Alien (er Martinez) is leaving early....will not return after summer recess

Hopefully a non-RINO is picked...would not be surprised if Crist picks himself.

Right now there is no real conservative candidate in the mix for Martinez’s seat

Crist appoints McCollum. This way next year Crist runs for McCollum's job and McCollum runs for governor.

I consider Marco Rubio to be a conservative, at least compared to Crist or Martinez.

Florida needs true conservatives not more RINOs. But I do think the public is waking up since FL went blue in the prez. election.

I wonder if he’ll resign before or after the Sotomayor vote.
