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.

Yes, you did. You're just not honest enough to admit it.
I think that you like to sit on the side line and throw bambs.
No, I'm sick and tired of crooks on government and in political movements hijacking the concerns of citizens to enrich themselves.
then it is easy for me to conclude that YOU are the problem
Yeah, sure. I'm the problem. Not the guy that raised hundreds of thousands of dollar promising an Israeli-style fence, build a five-strand cattle fence instead, and now cannot account for all that money.
You're pathetic in your attacks. We need honest citizens like Coburn to come forward, not grifters like Simcox. His opponents will kill him with this story, and with it any hope for political change with that seat.
I have yet to see you post the name of the sainted one you would give you vote to.
Maybe you should read the thread before attacking - I suggested Sheriff Joe.
But that's what happens when you attack before getting your facts in order. You come off looking like an idiot.
Ah, so Specter is my fault as well. Hint - I've never voted for the guy.
You really are a head case, newb.
Oh, and once we get an idea of the list of GOP candidates lining up against Specter for 2010, I will work for one of their campaigns. I’m not sure Toomey is the best bet - I want to see who else throws their hat in the ring. But if it is just Toomey and Specter, I will work for Toomey’s campaign.
Whatever happened to J.D. Hayworth, I thought he was potentially running?
that WOULD be awesome.
Hayworth has his own Abramoff issues to contend with.
Hey, EV, is Alan Keyes supporting Simcox in his senate effort?
Simcox = 92%
At best, one might assert that he and his organization were taken in by the wrong people. But it doesn't look like much changed since then. That in itself is problematic when you think of all the scum that lurks in the halls of Washington D.C. trying to influence the Senate. I hope folks are taking a quick look at the past going-ons before donating money.
I'm with you dirtboy/auntB: " I'd hope the Arizona GOP can do better than that."
Well, I can assure you that he won’t be supporting McCain.
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

According to everything I can find, Simcox is still wound up with Diener Consulting group and Keyes associations.

What is a carpetbagger?
And how is Simcox one?
Just curious...
Freeped:
Who are you more likely to vote for in the 2010 Republican senatorial primary?
John McCain 8 %
Chris Simcox 92 %
Total number of votes 463
How do you figure that? With McStain in office, they ALREADY hold the seat in question.
You can’t garner an increase adding two tired old possessions together.
Dirtboy is not your enemy. He is trying to WARN you of a probable embarrassing outcome -- and a LOSING one, to boot.
Please, research it yourself. Arizona MUST do better.
Poll Ping!
And Arpaio won’t repeat won’t EVER run for the senate. At least you could learn about the politics of a state before you blather on
Maybe you could learn about the grifter history of the dude you are shilling for before attacking other posters.
