We laughed about Howard Dean...and he is always good for an outrageous statement...but, he gets attention.
We need someone who gets attention...and I don't think I have ever listened to a whole floor speech that Martinez has given..but, there are LOTS of Senators that I don't listen to.
I am almost as disappointed with Lamar Alexander as Minority Whip...because HE doesn't inspire excitement...and IMHO..the word "whip" connotes "gung-ho..let's get going" type personality.
I guess I am still on edge from last Tuesday.
Lamar Alexander? Minority Whip? Really?
Why?
Me too.. I love Lamar, but his personality is so low key, however, I had the opportunity of sitting before Mel last summer to discuss an international issue, he was so empty, so lost on basic commerce.. I was truly surprised.. then living in Fla I have been to several of his fund raisers.. he is so bla... he just does not get it.. what ever it is these days...
