The GOP is very corporatist in this sense and will always, barring an indictment, support the incumbent.
The last election was the people's indictment of Sen. McCain. The only reason he got the support he did was because of his running mate and the thought of his opponent's policies were abhorrent.
Simcox better prepare himself and get well versed on many issues, not just immigration. Also, he better learn how to respond to the race baiters on this issue.

Well, we the people need to stand up and step in for Simcox, Hayworth, or whoever the best primary opponent against McCain ends up being.
We need to organise to let the GOP (and this applies most to registered GOP) know that they will not get a dime from us until they support conservative candidates - even in primaries against entrenched, RINO incumbents. Not a single dime. In fact, we need to organise our own CONSERVATIVE PAC which is completely unaffiliated with the GOP in any way, shape, or form and which will be dedicated to supporting CONSERVATIVE candidates - whatever their party label might be - in elections.
I don't believe we need to "throw all incumbents out." I'd kinda like to see folks like Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint, etc. stay in office. But I don't believe in rallying around the incumbent either, if he or she is a RINO, just because they have my party's label.
And face it - the issue of illegal immigration alone is important enough to toss McCain onto the heap, even looking aside at all the other junk he's done.
Folks, can you imagine what would happen if 10 million conservative families (and they are out there, yes) each gave $100 to a conservative PAC? That'd be $1 BILLION dollars. That's a lot more money than Obama had. Imagine if we conservatives all went in and pooled our resources and used them to flood conservative candidates like Simcox and Toomey with support?
