OK, so before I get started I have to tell everyone here that JD Hayworth reads what we post here. And he REMEMBERS! LOL! I am a JD supporter, and several months ago when I met him for the first time, he told me he likes to come here to FreeRepublic and read what we have to say. I was going to have him come here, but I never followed through, which was my fault. However, I have been hard on him in recent weeks.
I have to say that because Mohave County, where I live, is so conservative, conservative candidates take us for granted. Mohave County is NOT McCain land, so it's hard for me to gauge what's really going on around the State. I hadn't seen many JD ads and frankly, McCain is spending all his money attacking (in a very ugly manner) Hayworth. If everyone in Mohave would get off their asses and vote, we'd sway this election and there'd be no more Senator McCain. But we all know that's not the way it works.
However, someone high up in Republican politics from Phoenix told me the other day that she believes JD has a very strong chance as she knows NOBODY who is voting for McCain. So although I don't see the campaign too much here in Mohave, I understand now that he has been working really hard in Maricopa where elections are won and lost. That made me feel better as I slipped into my seat at the Mohave County Republican Picnic today.
I saw Hayworth and went over to say hello. The first thing he did was hug me and then ask me why I've turned on him! (Of course, this was all done with a smile on both our faces)...He proceeded to recite back to me some of the things I've written here on FR. LOL! I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT I WRITE FROM DAY TO DAY..the guy has an incredible memory!
So, I know he's reading this now, and I have to tell you that he must have taken his "adorable pills" because he was sweet and adorable and NOT bombastic like I have said in the past!
Seriously, the bottom line is we must defeat McCain. If only that Jim Deakins (who is a nut and I hope he's reading this too) would have done the right thing and stepped aside, I'd feel much better about everything today.
My support for JD has never swayed. I support him, I'm voting for him and I am asking everyone from Arizona to vote for him on Tuesday.
GOOD LUCK ON TUESDAY, J.D.!!!!
July 16th was one debate onyx
If they won't turn out for him then maybe he's in trouble!
Thanks you, KM and 999, I found my mail to me. I am deleting you all who are already here. If you get a second ping, “I’m sorry.”
No problemo onyx! The more the merrier!
JD, I’ve not said much against you but against the misinformed voters in your state, and they are legion. I can’t think of when AZ surprised conservatives favorably for the last time.
Wouldn't it be ironic if McCain's hateful ads are what does him in.
I voted for J.D. early! Sent my ballot in a few weeks ago. I wonder if anyone really knows there is a primary election this Tuesday unless they read the newspaper or internet news sites.
Hi, onyx! I figured this was important because I got TWO pings from you! LOL!! And ya know what? IT IS IMPORTANT!!
I’ve already posted my little message to JD somewhere on this thread but I don’t mind telling you that I pray every night that he wins.
I also hope and pray that the voters in Maricopa County WAKE UP and see that JD will be a Senator FOR Arizona not just FROM Arizona. Brilliant words because they came from JD!!
Let Juan McCain do the talkin' !!
I’m pretty sure all AZ Conservatives and AZ Tea Party members know there is a Republican Primary on Tuesday. We’ll have to see how the Independents figure into it. There are a lot of Indies in the Tea Party memberships.
You got that right. That’s why McCain tried to close the primaries this year! Fortunately, it was too late. However, I do not believe in open primaries and I hope they close them next time. Declare your party or lose your priviledge to vote in the primary. Period.
BTW, JD said he had the endorsements from 16 Tea party groups!
FWIW, I did not go to the McCain/Brewer rally in LHC and I wrote to Brewer to tell her why. I really wish she’d come back withOUT him and then she’d see a huge crowd.
I’ve never been able to figure where McCain gets his support, unless it is from crossover Democrats, because the only people who voted for him before this cycle were “anything but a Democrat” voters, who held their nose and voted for him.
With J.D. joining the race, I can’t find a Republican McCain supporter. Sure, I see his signs at intersections, but not in front of people’s houses. But plenty of J.D. signs there.
So I figure that, since nobody even knows the name of the official Democrat candidate, McCain must be running for the Democrat vote, figuring they, and the Republicans he can buy, will get him the win.
But lord, I hope he is wrong. McCain needs to lose, so he can give up all pretense of being an Arizonan, and he and his rich wife can spend all their time at cocktail parties with rich liberals in Manhattan or wherever his anger management counselor hangs out.
Kudos to you Hildy. I wish Hayworth all the best on Tuesday.
Yes Hildy, I want our Primary closed also!
Thanks for the information.
“Hildy” Would you elaborate please?
LOL. Two pings from me! Yep, it’s important!
You’re the best, azishot! Were everyone like you, JD would win in a landslide!
As it is, he just might pull this out and shock the smug out of one particular incumbent!
