Hayworth challenging McCain
http://www.politico.com/blogs/scorecard/ ^ | January 23, 2010

Posted on 01/23/2010 2:18:37 PM PST by AKReportz

Hayworth faced ethical scrutiny during his unsuccessful reelection campaign for his ties to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, whose Native-American clients contributed $100,000 to his campaigns. He is still paying off legal debt that he accumulated preparing for a possible federal investigation in connection with the Abramoff scandal.

Considering the disgusting slander McCain has heaped on Buchanan (”Nazi”) and more recently Bush (”anti-Catholic bigot”), it’s quite ironic to see McCain hobnobbing with spokesmen and lobbyists for the KLA, a Muslim terrorist organisation with close ties to the Taliban and Iran. Once again McCain has shown his duplicity and despicable opportunism by becoming a lobbyist for a pack of bandits.

Much of KLA wealth comes from narcotrafficking and donations from the likes of Bin Laden. Hence, McCain campaign money from his Albanian friends is quite likely drug money and the money of anti-Western, anti-Christian terrorists!

Many thanks to Justin Raimondo for revealing what a treacherous and despicable man McCain is. I never thought I would say this about anybody, but the more I find out about him, the more I begin to think that the mass media has found a darling who is even more despicable than ClinToon/Gore.

Jeb isn’t pushing Rubio. He is neutral. Please no mind-reading or rumors.

The founder of Lincoln Savings & Loan, Ruben Urcis(UDC Corp.) was a long time client of mine

He sold the thrift to Keating. I had lunch with him in the early 1990’s and we discussed the fact that McCain used Keating’s jet like it was his own ;-)

You have a right to vote for whoever you want in the primary whether it be JD Hayworth or someone else.

I’m supporting McCain.

The funny thing is that the RINOs like McCain are the ones who like to quote Reagan’s thou shalt not attack a fellow republican.

Apparently it doesn’t apply when McQueeg does it.

“Bingo. Hayworth is also a blowhard. “

Hayworth has nothing on you.

re: I DO hope Sarah endorses Rubio

This is a serious question. Honest. I'm not trying to cause trouble or anything.

Actually, should Sarah refrain from getting involved in ANY primary races. And not just her, but other primary contests, like the governor's race in Texas?

I am really divided on this. I am in Florida. I want to see what Rubio has to say and do when it comes to taking on Crist. A national figure getting into the fray seems to muddy the waters. At least, IMHO.

Same with the Texas gubernatorial race. Seems like having the former POTUS getting involved on one side or the other might be problematical.

Just curious on people's thoughts about this these days! As an aside, I would like to see them limit how much a candidate can spend on a race. An absolute limit with a set amount. I know it sounds screwy, but I want to see what someone can do when it comes to handling money and getting the most bang for the buck. In politics money seems to be the great equalizer. When someone runs with a war chest of several million dollars against someone with limited resources it seems to me it skews the process. Give 'em both the same amount and see how they handle it. Just a personal note!

“How much do you get paid for sucking up to Hayworth?”

HOW MUCH ARE YOU PAID TO SHILL FOR A TRAITOR?

The question was ethics problems. Hayworth was cleared. McCain will be saddled with Keating five for the rest of his life. But MCain has even more problems. Can you say:

McCain - Feingold
McCain - Kennedy
McCain - Lieberman

Are you a conservative? If you are, then you know what that backstabbing RINO is and does.

“How a veteran senator could perform that poorly against a brainless moron like Obama is beyond me. “

Nobody can figure it.

“The euphoria of blocking ObamaCare is understandable.”

I noticed them swarming the board and shouting down conservatives during the Brown ordeal. We supported Brown for health care and health care only. They think we support the Rino that is Brown which we did not and anyone who mentioned that inconvienent fact was harassed by them. So now they think they can bully us into supporting the next Rino -McLame. No way, Jose, Juan! A conservative gets the nomination or it is going to look a lot like NY23 for the GOP.

I personally don’t know why Sarah would support McCain. It makes me question her judgment.

Its the way the game is played.

Her "support" will be neither real or enthusiastic, and don't blink because you might miss her single and extremely brief appearance with him on the Friday prior to the primary.

“Hayworth challenging McCain”

Former GOP Rep. J.D. Hayworth told the Arizona Daily Star that he will be challenging Arizona Sen. John McCain in the Republican primary — one day after announcing he was quitting his conservative talk radio show.

I have to say that I would take a ethics violation, i.e. taking bribe money over McCain’s stand on:

Immigration
Campaign Finance
Global Warming
Health care
Stimulus
Cap & Trade

Did you really see much of a difference between McCain and Obama?

You’ve got it exactly right, he is afraid of JD. I’m thrilled JD is running, I was hoping he would. He’d be a huge improvement and I can’t wait to cast my vote for him.

You are right - it is Jeb’s son who is pushing Rubio and it was Jeb who told McCain’s Rinos at the Senatorial Committee to back off pushing Christie and bad mouthing Rubio before the primary. Rinos are so pushy and uncouth. They remind me a lot of socialists. Why is that?

Let’s hope you RINOs are few and far between in AZ. When it comes to primary election day, all few of you, just stay home.

Are you saying that Jeb Bush is a RINO, or Crist is or Rubio is? I don’t get it.

Based on what I know now, I will vote for Rubio. Jeb was a great governor but has a problem because George W. discredited the Bush brand. Not Jeb’s fault, really. I hope Jeb runs against Bill Nelson in a couple of years, and I would support him.
