Veteran GOP operative Jim Ellis points to the second poll so far this cycle showing Flake in big trouble — not of losing to a Democrat, but of losing his primary. Neither poll is particularly impressive in its pedigree, but the idea that Flake is in trouble is by no means far-fetched.

I certainly hope so.
God let’s hope so.

He’s a flake.
I sure hope so also. I don’t know if anyone plans to take him on but they’ve got my vote. One Little Johnny McCain is enough.
I think Kelli Ward is running for his seat.
Republicans in Congress that won’t support Trump may find themselves on the losing end of a primary against someone that will.
Cantorize this Rino supreme.
AZ State Treasurer DeWitt may be a better bet. He was with
Trump early and all the way.
I’m in with some $ for a good alternative!
Haven’t heard about DeWitt but I double checked and Kelli just said she is definitely running against Flake.
What about the ex-gov with the wrinkled face? If the sports guy congressman couldn’t take out McLame it ‘s unlikely to happen.
DeWitt would win, both the primary and the general
Trump brought this up when he was running for president to Jeff Flake.
Let us pray!
Great news! Flush the RINO flakes right along with the dimwitted dems.
The despicable RINO Flake will only be in trouble if Arizona Republicans are smart enough to change the 2018 Republican primary to a CLOSED PRIMARY. Right now, Arizona’s Republican primaries are OPEN — meaning ‘RATS can vote in the primary instead of their own. IMHO, this is the ONLY reason that the equally despicable McCain manages to survive primary challenges.
If both DeWitt and Ward run in the primary guess what that does for McLame? For the good of the party his time should be up but too many don’t listen in that business.
A Message From Kelli(from KelliWard.com)
After careful consideration and many long discussions with my family, friends, and supporters, I have decided to run again for the US Senate in the 2018 cycle.
Many of you know the successes that we enjoyed in our last race. Although we did not win, our team did an amazing job and I know that we will be able to build on our success and win in 2018. Here’s where we will start this time:
We were able to earn 40% of the vote in a 4 way race.
More votes were cast for me on Election Day than for any other candidate, including Mr. McCain - including votes in Maricopa County.
We won 5 of 15 counties and had more votes outside of Maricopa and Pima Counties than McCain.
We raised more money last cycle than any other insurgent candidate.
Over 235,000 Arizona voters selected me to be their next US Senator.
We were outspent at a rate of about 10 to 1.
The thirst for small government, freedom, liberty, low taxes, repealing Obamacare, closing our borders, fixing our broken immigration system and protecting our Constitution and Bill of Rights will not disappear after this election. We need conservative champions, like me, to lead the fight.
You were instrumental in getting us to where we were last time and I need you to help me again. I am going against a guy that votes to confirm liberal judges, supports amnesty, open borders, horrible trade deals, and does not fight to defend the Constitution. He votes to fund Planned Parenthood and has supported budgets that have increased our national debt trillions of dollars. He claims one thing to voters and does the opposite in DC.
Without your help, we will not have the resources needed to take out a DC globalist insider masquerading as a liberty-loving Republican. I’m tired of the deception in DC – let’s make sure our voices are heard in 2018.
Failures of leadership have led to the problems we face in our state and our country: open borders, over 90 million Americans out of work, lost insurance and skyrocketing costs under ObamaCare, and a federal budget that only goes up. It’s time to change that.
