RNC general chairman bails out.

WASHINGTON - Mel Martinez, the public face of the Republican National Committee as its general chairman, announced Friday he was stepping down from his post after serving only 10 months.

"I believe that our future as a party and nation is bright and I have every intention of continuing to fight for our president, our party and our candidates," the Florida senator said in a statement.

His resignation came months earlier than anticipated. Martinez wasn't expected to step down until a Republican presidential nominee was selected, and the earliest that could occur is February.

The RNC said Martinez' job would not be filled.

Not filled? They finally learned how irrelevant they are?

I heard this earlier, I'm not surprised who would want to be in that position now, the next GOP could be, the now, frontrunner, Rudia, oh how the pictures of that drag queen will be everywhere.
