Republicrat Martinez Will Not Stand For Re-Election
Martinez, running hard and fast towards the left despite
claiming to be a Republican (good solid record on National Defense
- turned left on immigration and the socialization of risk by
bailout) has decided to retire from the Senate at the end of his
term in 2010. This is good news.
Now we will have a long vetting process for primary challengers
to display their positions and be properly challenged to cement
them. Among those I suspect will consider the run:
-
Charlie Crist (Disaster)
-
Tom Gallagher - good solid Republican
-
Katherine Harris - staunch conservative that will have a tough
time because of the 2000 election fiasco. -
John L. Mica, Congressman from the 7th District - solid
Republican, weak on name recognition. -
Cliff Stearns, Congressman from the 6th District. A rating from
National Taxpayers Union, Solid defender of Gun Rights, My personal
favorite. -
John Peyton - Mayor Jacksonville - will never survive the
Primary -
I am sure many more will emerge. We will see.
