Yup. Old Mel a bit of centrist, isn't he?

"I guess he can be GOP chair as an active senator?"

Sounds like it would be tough to find the time to do both. Are they sure this isn't the campaign chair? We need someone to replace Dole.

Whenever I think of Mel Martinez, I think "excitement." (not!)

Apparently the Rep leadership has chosen to go for the so called "moderate middle"...?

IMHO conservatives need to consider forming a whole new political party

Why would he be named as head of RNC? I can think of a lot better Senators like Jim Inofe or Tom Coburn.

Please tell me this is not true! First Gates for SecDef and now this. I am officially living in the twilight zone.

Surname, it's more than that...he's an immigrant. He's Cuban, immigrated here when he was 16.
