Endorsement: Dr. Kelli Ward for US Senate
conservativehq.com ^ | 8/1/16

Posted on 08/02/2016 4:06:10 PM PDT by cotton1706

You would have to go back to the 1960s and early 1970s and the days when Nelson Rockefeller was Governor of New York to find a more anti-conservative Republican than Senator John McCain of Arizona. Which is why, as Senator McCain seeks an unprecedented sixth term in the US Senate, we are pleased to endorse Dr. Kelli Ward to replace him.

Over his 30+ years in the Senate and House John McCain has gone out of his way to antagonize conservatives in Arizona and nationally, especially on matters of amnesty for illegal aliens, the Second Amendment Kelli Wardand spending and the growth of government.

And in most of these fights McCain has been far out of synch with the Republican voters he purports to represent in Arizona and conservative opinion at the national level.

More than once Republican Party organizations in Arizona have censured Senator McCain for his liberal voting record – in 2014 the state party adopted a resolution by voice vote condemning the five-term senator for a record that is “disastrous and harmful” to the nation.

The resolution also hit McCain for being critical of his party’s conservative wing while staying “eerily silent against liberals,” working closely with Democrats on amnesty for illegal aliens and not backing a conservative strategy to defund Obamacare.

We could go on, but readers of this endorsement will already get the point: Kelli Ward will fight for the conservative agenda and work to govern America according to limited government constitutional conservative principles, while John McCain’s history and record prove that not only will he not support the conservative agenda, he will actively work against it.

What’s your point? Here’s his average. Conservative enough for you??

McCain (AZ) - 2016 - 65% (Average) - 36% (CReview) - 51% (Heritage) - 60% (Freedomworks) - 88% (CFG) - 91% (ACU)

And those lifetime ratings - that’s politicians using their votes from twenty years ago to give them cover for what they’re doing THIS year or LAST year.

Donate today freepers
I did
Do to honor the MIA’s that John McCain voted to leave behind once he reached his power peak in the US Senate

Do it to honor the men who battled flames on the USS Forrestal while John McCain became the first man to leave the burning ship, hitchhiking to Saigon on a reporter’s helo to get some “much needed R&R”

Do it to honor American Kayla Mueller who was being tortured and raped by ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Bagdadi as he attended meetings of “moderate rebels” chaired by Senator John McCain (photo evidence)

Do it to put an end to McCain’s meddling in the Ukraine to entice another incident that will bring the US and Russia into confrontation and possible war

Just do it

ACU ratings are fraudulent; senators are notified in advance will “score” will be taken.

My Gawd , I detest McCain. He is the epitome of the collapse of conservatism. He led the amnesty effort. He is a globalist interventionist with your money and your kid, beyond belief. Support the Doctor. I mean with big bucks!! I am going $25 and I don’t live there!!

ACU has her at 98% as an AZ state senator. Is it still fraudulent?

The ACU is not that conservative when it comes to certain issues like trade and immigration. The basket of votes that it uses to determine how conservative a legislator is needs to be evaluated. Grover Norquist has too much influence in the ACU even after David Keane left.

The ratings agencies tell the senators when they will be casting a vote that is to be scored. This allows them to swell their ratings to fool inept constituents.

You apparently don;t know anything about McCain either or you wouldn't be defending him.

Kelli Ward would be a tremendous improvement over McCain. McCain does not love this country and supports Hillary. He should not qualify to run as a Republican.

Has to be at the very top of the list of the most despicable Senators in the history of the United States.

I didn’t defend him. I posted his ACU rating. It simply convicted you.
I rendered no opinion.
