McCain vowed not to run again the last time he was elected. Now he says he’s thinking about running again. I hope Palin runs for his seat. Apparently she has bought a house in Scottsdale. Flake is a real disappointment......hopefully a real Conservative will surface and our Senators will properly represent Arizona sometime in the future.
“Now he says hes thinking about running again. “
Men in positions of power begin to identify with the position. It is no longer a job they hold. They embody the job. As Luis the 14th said, “I am the state.” They can’t see themselves not in the job. When somebody mounted a primary challenge on McCain, he spent 23 million dollars of “his” own money to win. Then he most likely spent another 10 in the regular campaign. So, it’s about the power and prestige. Men like him who lose office die shortly after. They’ve lost their identity.
Like a large number of elected officials their words are meaningless.
For us listening to them is the biggest waste of time and we would be more productive watching snail races.
McCain only got 47.17% in 2008 against Romney and Huckabee.

He only got 56.2% when he spent 20 million.
Maybe Wil Cardon will run again if he wins the SoS race.
