Advisers to Republican Senate hopeful Kathleen Troia "KT" McFarland said Thursday they will launch a petition drive to place her name on an independent line on the November general election ballot _ a move that could keep her candidacy alive if she loses the Sept. 12 GOP primary.

McFarland is NUTS! No, McFarland isn't nuts. She's being methodical and trying to undermine the Republicans' chances of winning the state. Far worse than a RINO, she is probably an under-the-table Democratic Party operative. Clinton has a tendency to be underhanded like this.
