She won’t be voting an 85 rating in the Senate. I guarantee it will plummet like a stone once in office. Any sucker who buys what she claims deserves to get hosed. You guys are way too smart to fall for this again.
Ward served 3 years in the State Senate. She got 40% against the treasonous McQueeg, despite being massively outspent and the Establishment working overtime to destroy her candidacy.
She doesn’t have to prove her bonafides, she already did in the AZ Senate. Marfa McQueeg, by comparison, has proven she’s nothing but another non-Conservative RINO and puppet for the corrupt Establishment.
Kelli Ward was 43 years old and pro-abortion when she was elected to the state senate from a safe Republican district in 2012, and she became anti-abortion at the age of 45, just when she was thinking of challenging John McCain in the 2016 U.S. Senate primary. I do not doubt that Ward’s voting record in her two years and eleven months in the AZ legislature (she quit in late 2015 in order to file for the U.S. Senate, as is required under AZ law) was conservative, but I do question whether her votes were principled or part of a strategy for her run against McCain. I don’t know many medical doctors (or osrheopathic doctors,” fir tgat matter) that suddenly duscover at the age of 45 that a child in the womb is a human being deserving of protection; if she were an accountant ir a historian or something non-medical I guess that she could claim ignorance, but an ostheopathic doctor should have known better.
And I don’t consider Ward’s 40% showing against McCain in the primary to be evidence of strength in a general election, any more than Christime O’Donbell’s higher vote percentage when running against a liberal-to-moderate Republican in DE was a sign of GE strength. A homeless man with a stutter would have approached 40% had he run to McCain’s right in the 2016 GOP Senate primary, so I wouldn’t attribute Ward’s decent showing to her campaign skills.
The 2018 Senate election in AZ is for a six-year term. I don’t want a Leftist lesbian like Sinema to be in the Sebate for 6 years, voting diwn President Trump’s nominees for the rest of his oresidency (including his entire second term) because we nominated an unpolished, inexperuenced campaigner who only has faced very cobservative electorates (in her state senate district and in the 2016 GOP primary. I’m certainly willing to give Ward a go in a GOP House district, where the odds of her losing would be tiny (and even if she somehow lost, the Democrat would be one of 435 and could get voted out in only two years), but a 6-year U.S. Sebate seat is too valuable a commodity on which to take a gamble.
