Thank you for an excellent post.
Thank you. Now it is time to look into Mike Duncan, the guy who is really going to be heading up the RNC.
Very sincere.....thank you for the effort.
Since we are trying to think this appointment through, here is some more information.
FYI
...if a candidate will not aggressively and forthrightly defend the unalienable right to life of the unborn...they lose my vote.
... if a candidate will not aggressively and forthrightly defend our unalienable right to defend ourselves...they lose my vote.
...if a candidate will not aggressively and forthrightly defend our soveriegn borders and the legal means of immigration...they lose my vote.
"Aside from his support for amnesty (see the Hagel-Martinez amnesty legislation and his pro-amnesty votes) Martinez is a good conservative."
Aside from his choice of meats, the "cook" in the movie `Texas Chainsaw Massacre' made some damn fine barbeque.

Can you explain the difference between Guest Worker and Citizenship?
Pray for W and Our Troops
"That is that Martinez takes the job full time and is not just a figurehead for the beltway party bureaucracy. "
Are you suggesting that he give up his Senate seat?
"I've posted over and over again in staunch opposition to amnesty and
cited numerous reports, studies, and criminal records to demonstrate
the terrible things the illegal aliens have done to our communities
and the crimes that they've committed against American citizens."
Just to help out those doubters, deniers and "moral equivalency"
justifiers of criminal illegal aliens, here is the FR resource

I really reject the Hispanic (or any other) label. We all shoud just be plain Americans.
Having said that, Hispanics have been deserting the Democrat plantation for a while now. Having Senator Martinez as the RNC Chair will solidify the support for the GOP from the largest "minority".
But I still would prefer Newt Gringrich in that chair.
Thanks for the post.
Meet the new "real" RNC leader - Mike Duncan

"Can you explain the difference between Guest Worker and Citizenship?"
One can vote. The other can only vote when Democrats control the polling station.
And a Senator in the minority party has virtually nothing to do 90% of the time. I'm not worried about him being a part-time chairman.
It's a question of whether he's the right man for the job at this time. What talent or inclination has he shown in the past, for example, to actually sell a conservative message in the face of a hostile press?
That's the issue, IMO...and the first question I'll be asking any candidate is, "Where in the past have you sold a conservative message in the face of a hostile press?"
It's not enough to be right...candidates have to be able to sell it.
