CNN

Getting close to election time and, as expected, most comments getting more nasty, extreme, and unloving. Do you all think you will not respond to your words and actions one day? We did not come to be created by chance, that is statistically impossible. Respect others as you would like others to respect you.

I think the next Presidential debate shouile be a Cackle Contest, have both the republicans and democrats have a Cackle off.

Wow, jump ship on the republican party lead post!!!

Maybe Tom DeLay needs a job, he's another despot weasle who will sell our souls for Bu$h and the fascist agenda.
Perhaps Bu$h has a plan. To rotate his cronies so fast that no one can unearth their foul deeds in time to be relevant.
This government has me alternating belly laughs and sobs,,, God help us all.

Latino's won't forget that Martinez jumped ship in the mist of the battle over immigration. I don't think he wants any part of it, but will come back in 2010 with a message of support for Latino's.

Well, well, well! Martinez is using his newfound time to go to the GOP meeting place (the bathroom where Larry Craig got busted, for the uninformed)

I cant wait until they all go home,come 2008

Good ridance. They Republicans are resigning quietly from left to right. Look how many prominent Republicans are announcing that they are not running for election. People are catching up to their game and they are toast!!!

The NRSC chairman has to be a Senator, so at least Rove is out. I am guessing Brownback....

It isn't just the GOP that are maggots, they all are. You are a fool to believe that "Blue Bush" will be any different than Red Bush. Right now inflammatory rhetoric against the Republicans creates the Blue Bush, look at how the money changes hands, there is the plan of the maggots.

Remember Ashcroft – Gonzales? One big loser goes away and a bigger loser comes to stay.

I'm certain the RNC will have a bigger loser to replace Martinez. Maybe Rove will get the nod. It wouldn't surprise me one bit.

None of the rats want to stay on board, they have heard about the scurvy that is on the boat.

They are all looking for a mooring line to run down.

Well, I guess they don't want to be around when the wall come crumbling down. The whole truth will be coming out soon. Bush and Cheney will be left holding the bag.

Not up for re-election until 2010 getting an early start. Out of the blue can't do two jobs at the same time. I sense someone openning a closet door.

Mel Martinez was elected to serve the people, but he is first, a Bushie-Puppet. The people ought to throw him out!

And Ileana Ros-Lethenien, Diaz-Balart TIMES 2 should follow.

Those Cubans have not become Americans!!!

former maryland lt. gov. mike steele as new chairman please!!!

Maybe Mel will eventually make the full retreat from the now dead Republican Party and return to Mexico?

The GOP is a grand bunch of maggots!!!

Just imagine how "evil" they'd be if they ever got their knobs polished in the West Wing!!!

living is florida, i can tell you that martinez is a bush apologist.

he is a disgraceful RINO who advocates (as BUSH) more spending and amnesty for illegal aliens.

he should resign from the senate today.

Ah, the rats – literally – are deserting the sinking ship of fascism.
