Yeah, I was going to say, we need someone that will beat McCain in the primary and then beat Kirkpatrick in the general. I think that Salmon has a much better shot than Ward in the primary, and is less likely to blow it in the general. I just hope that McCain faces a single, prominent conservativexand not two conservatives that split the vote.
Oh, and as for Salmon being 60, I’ll take two or three terms from Salmon anyday.
I’m not sanguine on Salmon, especially given his inexcusable statewide loss for Governor in 2002 against an absolutely execrable cretin in Butch Napolitano. We need new blood, and Salmon isn’t it. Ward is far preferable in that regard.
