You were right about him. I wonder if we have “Morning Jeff” to look forward to.
But Richard Carmona (D) wouldn’t have voted to cut taxes and nuke the filibuster to confirm Neil Gorsuch, both of which barely passed, so supporting Flake in the general election was obviously the correct course, you can’t pretend anything he’s done or said comes close to negating that good, no one but the liberal media cares about his anti-Trump whining.
Might have also been tough to beat Carmona as an incumbent this year. With Flake at least leaving an open seat, we have a chance to hold it.
It’s not that I’d vote for Carmona (were I an AZ resident), I just simply won’t vote for Flake. I ceased voting for our RINO wonders in TN (the Senators) after their first elections. As for the RINO Governor, I never voted for him either time.
In 2012, I voted for Corker’s Democrat opponent who was more Conservative than he (Mark Clayton). State Dems tried to strip Clayton of the nomination, stating their belief that he was a “far-right Conservative Republican” who used a low turnout primary (read: low-info voters) to bamboozle Democrats. I thought it was magnificent. They can f up our primaries by nominating left-leaning RINOs, but heaven forfend our side sneaks one through the Dems.
BTW, Clayton won the primary because his name was first alphabetically. The most famous person in the race was Park Overall from “Empty Nest.” A far-left nutter from the most ancestrally GOP area of the state. Clayton got 30%, she came in 3rd with 15%.
