KOLBE DIDN'T RUN FOR RE-ELECTION, HE RETIRED.

You are correct. The hand-picked successor of Jim Kolbe who got all the RNCC support was Steve Huffman. My error there.

And no, I'm merely asking a question, because he is likely to lose, not because he's a Conservative, but because he's a one-issue candidate who didn't have the broad support of most Republicans and Conservatives.

Oh bullcrap. Randy Graf is an experienced legislator with impeccable Republican credentials. He was Republican majority whip in the Arizona House of Representatives and highly respected by his colleagues. He has the endorsement of 26 members of the state legislature, taxpayers groups, the local Border Patrol union, law enforcement associations, the Minutemen and pro-life organizations.

Graf's biggest obstacle to victory in November will not be his Democrat opponent, but the damaged egos of the RINO-coddlers who backed Huffman. Those same people who insist that conservatives should support their RINOs are threatening to take their ball and go home. And to make matters worse, the RNCC -- still stinging from their sound rebuke by conservatives -- encouraged and legitimized this temper tantrum by funding Huffman in the primary.

All that said, with all your insisting that Graf can't cut it, if you ain't another one of those "conservatives can't win, but they must support our RINOs" jackwits, you sure as hell sound like one.

Nice to see you finally admitted you were wrong.

On the other point, if he's so great, why did 58% of Republicans vote against him? Are 58% RINO's? And if that's the case, how can you call the majority of the party "In Name ONLY" Republicans? As they are the majority, wouldn't they be in a better position to define what Republicans are or aren't?
