Chris Simcox, the co-founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps in Arizona announced Wednesday he is stepping down from his position with the Minutemen to challenge Sen. John McCain in the 2010 Republican primary.
In an earlier blog post, we asked who you would be more likely to vote for. As of 11 p.m. April 23, roughly 58 percent of the 36 respondents said they would vote for Chris Simcox over John McCain.
Do you agree? You can still take our poll.

From what I read about what happened with the border fence money....sounds like Simcox made a bad judgement call using a DC-based firm to handle the finances. I wouldnt call Simcox a crook....needs better money management.
However, with McCain getting money from George Soros, pro-illegal alien groups, and others....I dont think McCain is going to bring up money issues.
La Raza may be calling The Daily Star to pull that poll ;-)
I like Simcox but would love to see JD Hayworth take the seat.
I disagree. He promised an audit and it was a sham. If there was fraud by a third party, if Simcox was blameless, he should have come foward and given a full accounting.
Heck, get Sherrif Joe to run. Now THAT would be a wild contest!
I could go for that too. (actually I can’t since I’m in Michigan but you get the point)
I hope you post this whenever the candidates for VA gov are talked abt - talk about a LOAD of carpetbaggers - oughta be a law...
Yeah perfect reason not to vote for him. Instead vote for that wonderful Arizona native (oh but then not really huh?) John McCain who is soooo protective of your borders,language, and culture.
You are exactly part of the problem are you sure your name isn’t Specter???? People like you landed us G.W. Bush ( the oh so ‘compassionate’ conservative) which may well end up ruining this country forever. It is folks like you who brought us McCain as a presidential candidate. Go “help” someone else
Since you are so friggin perfect and so politically smart why the hell don’t you run and shut up about how lousy the other choices are???? Put up or shut up
“RINO versus grifter. I’d hope the Arizona GOP can do better than that.
Oh, and I defended Simcox’s fence project, but he never came through with anything remotely resembling a clean audit. We have enough crooks in DC already. “
Agreed. Surely Arizona has someone better to offer. It’s early, don’t put all your eggs in the Simcox basket just yet.
Pathetic. Because I point out Simcox's ethical problems, you attack me. You're as bad as the Dems apologizing for their corruption.
A swindler? Dang! Don’t need anymore of them in Congress.
“From what I read about what happened with the border fence money....sounds like Simcox made a bad judgement call using a DC-based firm to handle the finances. I wouldnt call Simcox a crook....needs better money management.”
Is he still involved with that group? That’s the answer I want.
John McCain 8 %
Chris Simcox 92 %
Total number of votes 324
Poll results aren’t scientific. Percentages may not add up to 100 percent due to rounding off.
I didn’t apologize for anyone’s corruption. I think that you like to sit on the side line and throw bambs. Do so. And when you continue to complain rather than get involved ( like running or getting someone that you approve of to run) then it is easy for me to conclude that YOU are the problem. It is this type of attitude that has led the GOP astray. I have yet to see you post the name of the sainted one you would give you vote to.

Ping!
Oh yeah but then you live in Pennsylvania where that saint of a man Arlen the Loser is your senator. It all becomes very clear now
