Steele Out Martinez In as RNC Chairman
I wanted Steele, we needed Steele, and we won’t get Steele! Instead, we get Mel Martinez, but he’s not leaving the Senate.
Under the arrangement, Martinez will remain in office and serve as the party’s lead spokesman as well as take a major role in fundraising and political outreach, while RNC General Counsel Robert (Mike) Duncan will oversee the committee’s day-to-day responsibilities.
Hot Air readers say “it’s an awful pick, transparently aimed at appealing to pro-amnesty Hispanic voters. If the GOP goes ahead and puts Boehner and Blunt back in place in the minority leadership, you’re looking at a very dire electoral situation in 2008.”
Michelle Malkin says NO!

“a very dire electoral situation in 2008″
At this point it’s hard to imagine anything otherwise…
