I’ll pay the cab fare for Martinez to go back(back anywhere)

Anywhere but to the Naval Observatory. For some reason a lot of people seem to think he's a potential Vice Presidential nominee, though I guess they forgot that Mel was born in Cuba and, unless he had an American parent I'm not aware of, he is constitutionally ineligible to the office of Vice President.

Actually, the job I had in mind is Mike Duncan's (previously Ken Mehlman's), the RNC Chairman. Martinez is the "General Chairman of the Republican Party", which, as I understand it, is more of a "face time" title than anything dealing with actual political strategy. It's a new post evidently created just for him. It's either a post created to pander to Latinos, or its there to groom him for "bigger things", though I can't imagine what that could be, since he's already in the highest elected federal office he can constitutionally hold.

I think "pander" is and was the key word there....

We have some truly talented Cuban Americans here in S. Fla. Martinez is not one of them.
