There goes ANOTHER seat!! RETIRE OLD MAN!! You are 80 years old, you have done GREAT work....now get off the stage!
He’s senile, Jim.
Thanks for your service Joe...it’s time to retire.
Rather than getting off the stage, he should set one up a couple hundred miles to the North-East and challenge Romney for the senate seat in Utah.
Another seat? He won’t back the McCain /Flake/Graham contingence
So he retires after his 6 years or sooner. We need a conservative Senator NOW.
Trump
Reagan
Churchill
I’m talking about the defeat in RED RED RED Alabama......we don’t need another defeat by an OLD OLD OLD MAN! NEW Conservative blood is needed!!
Old age and treachery will over ride youth and exuberance.
GO JOE!! MAGA!
They were 70....Joe is OVER 80!!!!!!!
Don't we have an acceptable candidate other than this guy...He'll get ripped to shreds in a campaign

Your choice not to respect your elders.
Post 5— Probably, the best suggestion for the good of the nation.
Keep J Flake, then.
I respect my elders. But I don’t ask them to do a task that is well beyond their ability. I respect them enough to tell them when they are in over their heads.
*ability*
You said ability.
Robert Byrd ...go for the gold.
Joe will be elected to the US Senate and then win the presidency in 2024 and again in 2028 and by then the 22nd Amendment will be abolished paving the way for Joe to be reelected in 2032 and 2036.
Actually he is 85. He’ll be 86 in June and as if he were to be sworn in next January. He would be 92 at the end of his first term.
As much as I respect Joe Arpaio, I think that his leadership could be used in other areas, not as a 92 year old senator.
