That's why I'm guessing she won't run.
For democrats, those aren't any problem; they're basic qualifications. :=)
Who could possibly give a $hit about a through and through head shot victim calling the shots.
Things are not going to end well.
I don’t think I have seen a picture of Tim Johnson recently either. I wish Giffords well, but I know if she had been GOP there would be calls for retirement already on the left.
Look Gabby Giffords has gotten the usual “1984/BigBrother” Obama Democrat Party treatment, a cheer leader rally for POTUS Barack Hussein Obama. Obama could care less about Gabby Giffords. Gabby’s Democrat Party could care less about Gabby Giffords. Shucks, we’’ll just use her shooting incident to Obama’s advantage. Too bad Gabby and her husband cannot see how they have been used for purely political reasons, along with the other unfortunate folks and children destroyed by a lunatic nutcase!!! The real criminals here reside in Washington, DC. Shame on the citizens of Arizona and the USA for condoning the Obama “Pep Rally” when a mourning and loss of life ceremony was called for!!! America continues to amaze me with their poor ignorance and useless purpose.
Liberals love the slain and injured. They are handy for hoisting up on standards while they do the blame dance round them.
I hope she recovers, but...despite evidence to the contrary from the incumbents, brain damage is not a desirable quality for election as a United States Senator.
Saving, and compassionate vanity conflict between those who perceive themselves her new controllers and those who truly care about her.
I hold out hope that the hubnd will intervene in this situation.
He may well do just such a thing before the fact.
Then, he too will be destroyed.
Arizona is NOT a “deep red state” anymore. The next Senator from Arizona will not be to the right of Jon Kyl.
Why pretend that can happen? She had half her brain blown off. She'll never be any more presentable than Jim Brady, and I doubt being able to give a thumbs up salute will be enought to get elected Senator for the first time.
Plus the fact that it takes a tremendous ammount of energy to run a Senate campagne. I do not think she will be up to it.
- campaign
- 1640s, "operation of an army in the field," from Fr. campagne "campaign," lit. "open country," from O.Fr. champagne "open country" (suited to military maneuvers), from L.L. campania "level country" (cf. It. campagna, Sp. campaña, Port. campanha), from L. campus "a field" (see campus). Old armies spent winters in quarters and took to the "open field" to seek battle in summer. Extension of meaning from military to political is Amer.Eng. 1809. The verb is first attested 1701. Related: Campaigned; campaigning.
- campagne
- obs. form of campaign.
Well, that too.
Considering her best friend in the House is Debbie Wasserman-Shultz, you can be damn sure she will run no matter what her condition. I would sooner make “friends” Satan himself.
Of course! Her weak policies on illegals should be exposed for all. And if her mental capacity is shown to be lacking in any way, that must be exposed because it would deprive Arizonans of the most effective representation.
Johnson has been back in the Senate. But once again, a liberal who should have been defeated is saved by a health problem. Johnson "won" (massive Indian vote fraud) by 500 votes in 2002, but won by 30% in 2008, and now will stay until he is buried. Sickening to see such misplaced sympathy. These are public SERVANTS, not royalty.
