A Martinez fan weighs in: Martinez "crucified over hate"

Via FAIR Immigration Reform Movement:

[Martinez] was admittedly put in a terribly difficult position on the comprehensive immigration reform bill, and at some level he crashed and burned with the legislation.

But let us not be too hasty as to think that his failure on the legislation was all due to his own missteps. Sure, he made mistakes. But it was clear that key members of the RNC were going to use him as a punching bag on this issue to protect themselves.

Put a latino in power, and then crucify him on “his own” issue.
