Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) spent more than $10M on his primary battle against ex-Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R), according to his 2ndQ campaign finance report, leaving him with a much narrower financial advantage in the GOP primary than he once enjoyed.
McCain has spent a total of $15.7M this cycle, according to FEC reports, and he has just $1.78M left to spend before the Aug. 24 GOP primary. Hayworth had $922K in the bank, his reports showed.
"Senator McCain takes every campaign seriously, and this race is no exception. Senator McCain is proud of the statewide support he's received from Arizonans, both financial and otherwise," said McCain spokesperson Brian Rogers.
McCain has been blanketing the AZ airwaves with TV ads, but he has apparently made a significant cutback in the size of his buy lately. According to Hayworth media consultant Dan Bayens, McCain has reduced his ad spending from $150K-$250K a week -- where he had been since March -- down to $40K a week currently.

FUJM!
You got that right.
His wife must be bankrolling him.
Yummm.. BBQ RINO!
Wonder what his poll numbers are today? Last poll I saw McRino 69% and JD 30%....I hope that has flipped.
Hardly a day goes by when I don’t get a Robo Call from McLame with negatives about JD. He is really getting desperate to hold on to his “Progressive” slot in DC.
If McPain wins the GOP nomination, who will be his Democrat oponent? Would the Democrat be worse for the country than McPain?
If Hayworth pulls this off on August 24th, Democrats everywhere will be shaking in their boots.
Wow! Didn’t know he had that much money left from when he (didn’t) campaigned against BO.
Retire, please but not in AZ.
One thing going for JD is the absence of Snowbirds during the summary months. They tend to be libtards, or just plain uninformed, fearful senior citizens, who can be easily fooled by Juan’s non-stop, hourly Radio Ads. JMHO
I mean no dispersion to seniors, since I’M1. LOL
A side note, that I dont see anyone talking about is remeber what happened in MA and NJ when Obama was still polling in + polpularity. IIRC it was about 52%-54%. Now that he has slipped into negatives, I believe that is why the RINO’s and RATS are scared sh*tless. I dont know how that will transpire in AZ, specifically, but across the land, there’s a storm a brewing and the RATS and RINO’s that have broken the air tight seal that keeps their heads up their a$$es know it.
Maybe we seniors are wising up a little after November ‘08.
i doubt he is panicking..i wish he was
And to think Sarah Palin supports this load of SH*T.
Well, I have lost some of my respect for her over this very issue.
If AZ doesn’t wake up soon and smell the waffles, quite annoyed I’ll be.
” Sarah undercut JD before he could even get started - just as planned. “

DONNA MANAGED TO SAY IN 12 WORDS, WHAT MANY OF US HAVE BEEN TRYING TO SAY WITH 100.
Evidently McCain’s shills on this forum didn’t get the memo. John is frantically spending every penny he can to win this election, but we’re to believe J. D. Hayworth is being blistered in the polls.
What does John know that his shills don’t?
John, some thing you just can’t buy. Adios tonto...
Where is he getting this money from?
Damn, that’s a shame, such a nice car too.
