The fact that Mel Martinez is now RNC Chairman deserves more than a quick post. It deserves an expose all its own. He is linked to this scandal, and
it just goes to show how far up the tree the rotten apples go.
I did go into the Mel Martinez nomination a bit more on
my
blog, but that was not a massively investigated post either, just some of the better known things he's been involved in. A proper
investigation into his involvement with both SkyWay and other corrupt elements would be a good idea... but for another thread, probably. (Although
the SkyWay-related information would, of course, be an excellent thing for this thread.)
There are still quite a bit of uninvestigated leads in this thread, but I've been busy starting up my political news site and haven't been doing too
much research lately. I'll set aside some time for this thread in the near future, though, and go through everything, marking down the bits of
information that haven't been fully looked into yet. I may then write a large summary of everything known up to this point and start a new thread
that doesn't contain the potentially misleading early false starts and inaccurate assumptions we made.
I think this subject has quite a ways to go still (both in finding new information and correcting inaccuracies previously posted by myself, others in
this thread (unintentionally, I'm sure) and individuals at other sources) and shouldn't be dropped yet, so as soon as I can get the time, I'm
definitely starting work on it again.
