Personally, I don’t think it’s a big deal. Hobbs will lose because she’s a poor candidate and lacks solutions to problems.
Hobbs refusing to debate Lake politically destroyed her. End of story. Anyone refusing to debate their opponent, is all ya need to know.
Lake will be the next AZ Governor.
I hope Hobbs loses, but not because of a traditional silly high school ritual she was involved with, a ritual that had nothing whatsoever to do with negros.
There’s enough reason to dislike her and her Party, not to have to deal with nonsense that happened at her school when she was 16 years old.
Hobbs should be defeated for being a Demonicrat. That should be sufficient reason for decent human beings. It remains to be seen if Arizona has sufficient number of decent human beings.
“Democrat”
All is forgiven. Having that “D” next to your name is even better than a Papal Indulgence.

As I understand Hobbs didn’t debate in the dem primaries either. I heard her response on Face the Nation where she said she wouldn’t debate because her opponent has turned it into a circus.
Dems can always come up with an excuse and the MSM doesn’t follow-up or laugh at these lame responses. They get a free pass for anything.
The diehards on the left or right know what’s going on but the non-political types in the middle have to actually pay attention to figure out these smooth deceptions. By definition they are non-political types so they don’t always pay close attention and analyze it themselves.
I’ve said it before — unless you find a way to fix or at least compensate for the MSM propaganda machine we are fighting an uphill battle.
Ralph Northam was already governor when the yearbook thing surfaced (how the hell did Ed Gillespie’s opposition research team miss that one?). Northam didn’t need to “overcome” anything, all he had to do was wait two or three weeks like any politician needs to, because people have short memories and the outrage machine always runs of steam pretty quick.

Be a Slave. Vote for those who know better than you how you should live your life, spend your money, raise your kids.
We had slave days in my Junior Classical League chapter in high school. We were all white!!!!
So what?
Katie Hobbs is a poor candidate, whatever she did in high school!!!!
This is all silly but it’s the liberal chickens coming home to roost.
When I was in college, pledging a fraternity, my pledge class ran a slave auction at our affiliated all girls college. I was purchased by Betty and her friends. While I wish it was a better story, I just had to spend the day hanging out with the girls in the all girls dorm. It was a good time, a very good time.
But as Alinsky said, hold the opposition to their own standards.
Democrats have never cared about racism, it’s just a tool of division for them. That’s the extent of their concern. The Democrat voters are no different. Something like this would be effective against their opposition, but that’s pretty much it.
All she has to do is declare that newborn children should be left to die if the mother has second thoughts or the child has an illness. She will instantly become a media hero and celebrity.
For those who don’t know what it was...this is a scene from “Dazed and Confused”

I think this may have been a Dem “leak”.
Hobbs lost a lawsuit about racial discrimination in 2021 that cost the taxpayers $2.75 million.
Now they’ll point to this high school “scandal” and lump everything together as “frivolous claims of racism”.
30+ years ago. The “slave day” thing was fairly common at the time.
There are a lot of reasons not to like this woman, but this isn’t one of them. If everyone associated with a slave day in the 80’s was tossed in a put—that pit would fill up pretty quickly.
Greeks had slaves. Romans had slaves. Ancient civilizations had slaves. Arabs had slaves (and sort of still do). It’s not really a racial thing. Not like blackface Northam. There are other reasons not to vote for her.
Hobbs with her little sixteen year old voice, is reminiscent of all the PITA kids you went to school with and had to endure.
Go become a Mousekateer, Katie.
