The Federal Election Commission has dismissed a complaint alleging that J.D. Hayworth improperly used his former Phoenix-area radio show in his bid to unseat Arizona Sen. John McCain.

Former Attorney General Grant Woods, a McCain ally, filed the campaign finance complaint in December.

Woods argued that Hayworth's use of his three-hour radio show on KFYI amounted to an illegal "in-kind" donation from the station.

Hayworth hadn't yet announced that he would challenge McCain in the Aug. 24 Republican primary. His last broadcast was in late January.

Elections authorities dismissed Woods' complaint on June 10. The commission found that Hayworth's radio show fell under a provision of federal law allowing political commentary.

FUJM!

I guess McCain has adopted the Alaska dumbocrats' play book. File continuous ethics violation suits until you bankrupt your opponent. McCain and his mob will do whatever it takes to retain power.

Well, that's mighty nice of them. Allowing political commentary.

McCain never filed a lawsuit to see Obamarama’s birth certificate.

He picks and chooses his battles.

Same way the President of the United States is more angry at Republicans than terrorist Islamonazis.

Obama tells McCain to _________ him.

I wonder how much it cost JD to defend himself against this? Oh, and, FUJM.

John McCain has a long time, well known GAMBLING problem! His support and $ come from questionable people with questionable ties.

Mafia ties:

In 1995, McCain sent birthday regards, and regrets for not attending, to Joseph "Joe Bananas" Bonano, the head of the New York Bonano crime family, who had retired to Arizona. Another politician to send regrets was Governor Fife Symington, who has since been kicked out of office and convicted of 7 felonies relating to fraud and extortion.

McCain's mafia ties go back further than that ... all the way back to Cindy McCain's mafia connected dad, who launched McCain's career and put him on the nipple of Charles Keating and friends. Cindy's dad took the fall for the mafia over illegal liqour distribution charges and was rewarded with a beer distributorship when he got out of the clink. Cindy's dad also helped the mob do some dirty business in the New Mexico horse racing market back in the day.

Why did McCain celebrate his birthday on a Mobster's Yacht?

The photograph substantiates reports that in late August, 2006, McCain celebrated his 70th birthday aboard a yacht, the Celine Ashley, rented by A-list con man Raffaello Follieri and his then-movie star girlfriend Anne Hathaway.

Follieri, who posed as Vatican chief financial officer in order to win friends and investments, pleaded guilty Wednesday in a Manhattan district court to conspiracy to commit wire fraud, eight counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering.

That is indeed good news! I know the only poll that matters is the final one on Election Day, but what are the polls looking like in AZ?
