MALONEY DECIDES AGAINST SENATE RUN New York Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney has reversed course and decided against a challenge to New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand in 2010, the New York Times reports.firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/08/07/2023284.aspxMel Martinez resigningSen. Mel Martinez (R-Fla.) will be resigning from the Senate, according to several senior Republican sources familiar with his thinking.www.politico.com/blogs/scorecard/0809/Mel_Martinez_resigning.htmlAnd let's not forget when Arlen Spector quit the Republican Party and went Democrat earlier this year! Is this now becomming not only the party of whiners, the party of "NO"!, the party of scandals, but now, the party of quitters?

Like any conservative or moderate republican shed tears when Arlen Spector left the republican party. He should never have been in the republican party to begin with.

Carolyn Maloney is a Democrat. Thou art right Alfie! Phoney Baloney Maloney is a Democrat! I apologize for posting her as a Republican. I was wrong. You are right. ;D But guess who else quit The Republican Party... Joe The Plumber Quitting The GOP: Time MagazineStop the presses... (even though we haven't received the press release yet). Time Magazine is reporting - burying rather - the news that Joe the Plumber, also known as Samuel Wurzelbacher, is quitting the GOP. That's big news considering Joe became the new GOP mascot during the McCain campaign and has since advised the party during conferences and in Capitol Hill briefings. www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/05/07/joe-the-plumber-quitting_n_198920.html
