"what are the polls looking like in AZ?"

I don't know about the polls, but McCain has ads running on TV every half hour, every day, on every channel he can hire to run 'em.

Nothing on JD.

JD has no money - no (ahem) big money backing.

My prediction - McCain will win again. It sickens me that MONEY can buy the vote in this country.

It is illegal in Europe, (from what I understand) to spend money on advertising for a political office, like McCain is doing.

BTW - I have lived in AZ for almost 20 years - and have NEVER met ONE SINGLE PERSON that ever voted for McCain.

I guess money buys the people who don't bother to check on the backgrounds of anybody running for office......they just vote for the person they see on TV all the time, that says the 'right things', and the background music is soothing and beautiful. (Like McLettuce's campaign ads.)

Same here, yorkie, I've been here year-round since 1991 and have almost never met anyone who voted for him. A few very reluctantly did. It's very strange.

And his staffers are the rudest ever, I'll never forgive their nasty attitude during the last amnesty wars (and yes, I'm polite when I call, always have to give that disclaimer). It's quite clear that we work for them instead of the other way around.

Don’t give up hope. JD may not have the deep pockets that McLame does, but JD may be waiting to use his funds closer to the primary. Personally, I donate what I can, then pray hard the BEST condidate wins. In this instance, that would be JD Hayworth. I won’t give up until the last ballot is counted and neither should any AZ resident.

There's still time.

He's not closed the deal, and all the ads in the world won't work if he can't.

If the dogs won't eat the food, people won't buy it no matter how good the ads are.

I have, but very few, Yorkie. You and I don’t hang with RINOS.

Have you heard Palin’s ads for McCain? She paints him as a “Godlike” figure.

AM550, Phoenix

AM 790 Tucson.

The ads must have cost millions!

I had to switch my computer listening to KFI,AM 640 Los Angeles to avoid hearing the Palin ads.
