Vote LS for the next Senator of Arizona!
You got my vote ;-)
Governor Ducey is a very careful man. He does nothing that will come back to haunt him. He is probably the best pure politician I have ever met. And a really nice guy. I am proud to call him my friend.
I’m an Arizonan and I voted for Ward against McCain and vote for Ward tomorrow. It’s the state GOP that gives us RINOS in the general elections. They also stomp on anyone who tries to go up against them.
Agreed. Congress needs to monitor its own and demand the resignation of those with medical or psychological issues that would interfere with their performance.
Anyone with a terminal illness should be focused on their personal health and maximizing time with their family and best friends.
McCain has a mother- Roberta age 106
Cindy & 7 kids and some grandkids and siblings
How selfish he was to have any limitations on the time he spends with them.
How selfish he was to be undergoing treatment for brain cancer and believing that the tumor itself or the treatment would not impair his decision making.
How selfish he was to himself to not spend this precious time focused on his health and well-being.
His ego superseded his common sense.
We would love that.
Kelli made a dozen major errors. I won’t list them here, but I had joined her team as an unofficial advisor back in Oct. 2016, and sadly little of my advice was taken.
She had a window in 2017 to nail down the nomination and exclude others, but couldn’t reel it in.
My guess is that he was on life support for some time and the “decision to end medical treatment” last week really only amounted to pulling the plug.
I just looked up the Arizona Election Code and procedures manual.
Since this is a primary, it looks like the best of all worlds would be for the Governor to appoint the winner to fill McCain's term. This has the advantage of ensuring that person at least two years in the Senate instead of taking the gamble of the general election. Then, with the vacancy in the general election caused by loss of the primary winner, the party may select a replacement candidate. This could easily be the runner-up in the primary.

Not gonna happen.
1) McSally will win by 20. Ducey no fan of Ward.
2) It would be a nuke bomb to name primary loser (Ward) to a seat then have the winner lose in the general and not have a seat. Ducey isn’t stupid.
3) I’m voting Ward on Tues, but it would be an insult to the voters to put in place someone who was rejected by the majority GOP for the nomination. Just won’t fly.
As long as he is still dead.
My guess too, since it fits the "helping Ducey" criteria, and Adams has some gravitas as a former Speaker of the House.
I’ll let Dougie know that you are shy but available.
LOL.
I guarantee that in 2020 I’d win reelection with 60% based on my votes and support for Trump.
This post confirms you chose the right Freeper name.
I agree, but Adams may not have the current status of an “elected official” that would make it seem kosher. I dunno.
My thoughts too.
McCain regarded his seat in the senate as his own personal possession, something he would own until death and then pass along to an heir of his choice.
Narcissistic and selfish to the very bitter end.....
The left was banking on the widow angle, no one could oppose Cindy because she lost her husband. I think that’s why we’ve had the 24/7 McCain was God narrative, the left wants to keep his seat.
He’s been dying forever. Are you telling me there isn’t a new Senator already chosen? Right.....
Isn’t Sarah Palin a resident of Arizona?
That would be a lovely slap in the face to loser McCain - lol!
