Yet every day I talk to someone different who says indeed it was bad messaging-—and they give me examples.
Today it was a dental hygienist who as best I could determine voted for Ducey but not McSally. She asked for my opinion but I turned it around. She essentially said messaging. Then I gave her my “drills/holes” example.
“You should have been McSally’s campaign manager,” she said.
Bad messaging may be a part, but I cannot ignore blatant fraud going on in vote-counting. As I said, no locale where Democrats are in charge of voting can be considered valid. They do not feel they have to obey the rules and can engage in any conduct or actions to keep or maintain or proliferate power. You cannot fight an opponent when you’re playing by Marquis of Queensbury rules and they carry a Bowie knife, a gun and a bazooka in their waistband.
As an aside, it didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out Marfa McQueeg was a bad candidate. Virtually half the GOP base voters knew she was a RINO with an even worse voting record than Flake. Unfortunately, neither Arpaio nor Ward would’ve won, namely because Arpaio was a joke and Ward didn’t have the $$ resources. A reliable Conservative should’ve stepped up, someone like ex-Rep. John Shadegg or ex-Treasurer Dean Martin or Jeff DeWit.
If Ducey seriously appoints her if Kyl steps down, he might as well appoint a Demonrat to the vacancy, because he’s pissing the seat away.
