Linsey Graham worked for two years on his campaign. McCain will do no less, especially since all the worker bees are doing the actual labor.
Tea Party conservatives need to find a candidate soon to primary this ass or to win that election if McCain realizes he’s the walking dead and decides not to run.
AZ and MS are similar.
McCain uses dem crossovers in the primary to take out his conservative opponents.
The dems in AZ know that it is a very red state so the best they can do is help nominate a moderate who will listen to them. This is why McCain always gets in. And I would not be surprised to hear of under the table payoffs for those dem crossover votes in AZ.
Without question money still talks, unfortunately it often trumps principle.
With about $50,000 I can buy someone a position inside the AZ democrat party (infiltrate) and get close to the McCain connection for crossover votes. Then a process of gathering names and evidence would be ammunition to blow McCain away.
And there’s nothing illegal about using paid informants.
