MEL MARTINEZ WILL NOT RUN FOR A SECOND TERM (RINO-FLORIDA)

Local News | 12/2/08

Jeb doesn’t walk on water everywhere in Fla. No more messiah candidates, please.

[floriduh voter]

Crist is a RINO too. Going green is gonna cost Floridians dearly. Crist pals w/Ahnold. Crist dreams of a green army of 500,000 youth to tattle on litter bugs.

Not really along shot. Bush Clinton Bush Clinton as Sec State Obama Bush..Bush and Clinton everywhere you turn.

[NRA2BFree]

That's great news for America! Hopefully, he will be replaced by a conservative. We don't need any more RINOS!!

[NYC GOP Chick]

Probably true. I really hope it does work out for you guys!

[St. Louis Conservative]

Well, he used to be a conservative Republican congressman from Florida. I believe he hailed from the most conservative district down there.

"Rush Limbaugh is a resident of Palm Beach and I am pretty certain if he ran, he would win at least 68 percent of the vote."

Man - I know he won't run, but wouldn't it be great to have a Republican senator who didn't wet himself when scolded by the Democrats? I can see Dingy Harry having an aneurysm when Rush leads the next Republican Revolution in 2010.

Sigh - just a fantasy.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Yes. He was even part of the impeachment of der Schlickmeister, I believe. Then he drank the Kool-Aid at PMSNBC.

Gov. Palin’s approval rating is about 80%, KH’s is about 20%. KH is the anti-Palin.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Joe went bye-bye. He’s almost as toxic as KH.

[Neu Pragmatist]

Harris cannot win a Senate seat . It would be nice if she could , but it’s never going to happen .

[CottonBall]

I had lunch with Mel Martinez and I thought he was one of the most intelligent, articulate, and decent person out of many senators.

You'd likely find Obama to be those first 2 things as well. As well as Hitler and Stalin. And you cannot judge a person's decency by one lunch! It's ludicrous that you'd even suggest that you could. And the bottom line is - It's the agenda they have and how they intend to implement it that matters.

You are talking about style. Conservatives talk about substance.

[MNReaganite]

Jeb Bush. The man who, if not for his last name, would be President-Elect now.

[SunkenCiv]

Unbelievable - RINO Senator Mel Martinez responds to the Citizenship question

The Democrats are on the verge of a filibuster proof Senate and Jeb has won two state wide elections, that’s why. Hopefully by 2010 his surname won’t be an anchor around his neck like it would be today thanks to his brother’s ineptitude.

[johnthebaptistmoore]

I’m sure that the name “Bush” will be hated for, at least, the next 100 years, if not even longer. No more Bushes for awhile, please! I’m also against political dynasties, no matter what their political ideologies are.

[snowsislander]

I am glad that the Senator so quickly took my advice at least to some extent: it was just yesterday that I posted in response to the disgraceful letter sent in Senator Martinez's name regarding the very murky circumstances of Mr. Obama's citizenship issues:

Mr. Martinez should be ashamed of this response -— indeed, I believe that it is shameful enough that I think that he should resign his seat in the Senate over its issuance -— and, even more damning, he probably never saw your letter or the response made in his name.

I don’t think Jeb wants it. If he wanted it, he would have ran in 2004 or 2006.

[Gondring]

Is there ANY Latin Republican that can run for this seat?

For a Republican, perhaps a better example would be Lucius Iunius Brutus :-)

Well then...bye...
