The GOP is becoming the GQP--Grand Quitter Party
Edited on Fri Aug-07-09 11:58 AM by WI_DEM
Palin--1.5 year left as Governor and quits
Martinez--about same time left--quits

And isn't Kay Bailey Hutchinson planning to resign to devote her time to running for Governor?

I guess they don't care about finishing the jobs that they were elected to begin with.

Oh, but they will cling to there current job if they are caught in a scandal like Diaper boy Vitter, Harlequin sap Sanford, the grey fox Ensign and toe tappin' Craig.

4. Heard on NPR news awhile ago
that he wants to "spend time with the family" back in Florida. Isn't that some kind of code?

6. No. It's just fun knowing what they say when something more in the background comes out later.

3. The GOP is making elected office a joke....
It's okay to bail if it stops working for you, never mind the needs of your constituency?

The Republicans continue to shoot themselves in the foot.
