The general consensus of opinion on McCain here is he has forgotten about the people of Arizona .... the very people who sent him to Washington to represent our interests.... that he is only focused on national and foreign issues. McCain dislikes having to deal with the citizens back here because, frankly we are too right wing for his tastes out here.... his daughter and here beliefs didn't fall all that far from the old tree.
As for Simcox, I've been searching and there isn't a lot of info pro or con on him, I think it will start to bubble out, but one thing that is interesting, he can't be too stupid, he has managed to wrest control of the AZ GOP out of the total control of John McCain and without that accomplishment no one would have been able to challenge McCain.
BTW over at Redstate they are not pleased that McCain is being challenged the same time as Specter is being challenged.... guess we can't handle changing to old farts in one election term.
Folks, CONTROL THE LOCAL AND YOU CONTROL THE NATIONAL PARTY.
Remember, the RINOs count on outside the base money. However they can’t save ALL the RINOs.
There is Specter, McCain, and in the open seat in FL there is crist.
By controling the locals WE CONTROL the volunteers, WE CONTROL the local constributions, WE CONTROL the absentee ballots for the senior homes...
Hooray! I'm all for that!

I suppose it's some of that 'the devil you know vs. the devil you don't'. Same reason women stay with men that abuse them. It's all pretty primitive if you ask me. We really aren't picking our leaders any better than they did hundreds of years ago...instead we still let them divide us up in 'camps'.
We the people? More like We the R's, the D's, the gays, the blacks, the hispanics, the north, the south, the muslims, the catholics, the mormons....ad finitum!
And the best they can agree on is the John McCain's of this country?? Primitive.
Please Arizona, get rid of McCain, but be careful what you wish for.
