I think I've seen Jeff Flake's name tossed around for the open Senate seat left by Jon Kyl. I guess Flake isn't serious about running for higher office after all.
Unfortunately Jeff Flake has become part of the problem in Washington, not part of the solution. He is one of the politicians who Arizonans need to replace.
He proposed his own Cap and Trade bill. When I questioned him on it, he claimed it was “revenue neutral” because there was a payroll tax off-set. I learned that Al Gore also proposed a revenue neutral Cap and Trade tax. Flake should know better than to lend any support to the EnvironMental movement. Instead he drank the kool-aid.
He is also on the wrong side on the immigration issue. He doesn’t do anything to help Arizonans when it comes to the problems on the border.
There are other reasons why I have lost faith in his ability to serve so I truly hope he doesn’t run for the Senate.
