McCain is then scheduled to hold a town-hall meeting.

McCain doesn’t have to debate J.D. He’s leading in the polls.
Juan, of course, is the MSM darling in this one. Our “non-biased” media know a good, dependable RINO when they see one.
As bad as you and others think McCain is.................
don’t you wish he was in office instead of ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
any recent polls?
McCain agreed to debate J.D., but he lied just like he does about everything else.
As bad as you and others think McCain is.................
dont you wish he was in office instead of ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
That’s not the issue. McCain doesn’t have to debate J.D. He’s leading. J.D. needs to gain some traction, apply pressure to McCain’s lead, then the debate will happen. Until then... McCain is going to rely on the Arizona voter to return him to office.
Why would I wish that an evil man was in office just because an even more evil man is?
The GOP/RNC should have stopped this reprobate from running, and I’m just as angry at them. They have to be purged of country club RINOS .
With your argument, there would never be a debate between candidates.
There’s always a leader, even in statistically-even polling. All leaders should simply point to Carton253’s (lack of) reasoning.
” Thats not the issue. McCain doesnt have to debate J.D. Hes leading. J.D. needs to gain some traction, apply pressure to McCains lead, then the debate will happen. Until then... McCain is going to rely on the Arizona voter to return him to office.”
McCain has spent close to 6,000,000 to Hayworths 500,000, and you tell me we don’t need a debate?
Hayworth has got to come out and call McCain a COWARD, period!
McCain is leading. Why should he risk turning in a bad debate performance and give his opponent momentum?
Why doesn't J.D. have money? Why isn't he performing better in the polls? Why isn't he gaining on McCain?
Can't J.D. do better than he's doing?
pinging you to the thread
McCain has 20 million dollars left, and you post this drivel?
Get a clue!
Who the hell is running JDs campaign? McCain is ripe for the picking and yet JD isn't really gaining any momentum. Specter's loss proves and establishment guy can be beat.
Come on, JD, do something to turn the tide, and go after McCain something fierce!
Arizona seems to be well satisfied with their maverick RINO senator, even if you're not.
JD on the other hand needs to put pressure on McCain and force him to debate. Otherwise JD is going to lose.
My whole issue all along is, if McCain is such a weak candidate, why is JD doing so badly? And if JD is such a strong conservative, why isn't he getting endorsements from the NRA, etc.? Specter's loss is proof an old dog can be beat. But why hasn't JD caught on? I just don't buy the 'McCain's power' and 'Sarah's endorsement' as a valid reason why JD isn't doing better.
I'm not familiar with AZ politics, but is there any left over from JD's defeat some years ago? Are people wary of that?
Just wish I could put my finger on why JD isn't resonating with voters. Hoping that changes, though, and he pulls our a late minute victory. Nothing would give me more joy than to see McCain put out to pasture.
If I were JD's campaign manager, I'd be doing focus groups left and right to find out what's wrong with JD- not what's wrong with McCain. Until you know voters perception of you, going after your opponent is a waste of time. Once you find out what perceptions are, work to change them- and frame them within the context of what voters want.
Now is the time to do this, JD. Sink or swim time is now.
