Watching PBS tonite with the tea party head, the Republican whatever, the Democratic head and they talked about how Flake won. As the Democratic chairman indicated it was the nastier, LYING ads ever run again Carmonia. Flake ran on LIES, supported by Senile McCain and Kyl.
The people will get what the deserve electing Flake and McSally, the Tea Party Talibans. They will screw the people of the state really bad. McSally never campaigned on what her real beliefs were. SHE LIED. Women will lose all their rights with Flake and McSally in DC.
And the head of the Local Tea Party thought it was fair ads. The Tea Party only mission is to DESTROY. And they smile as they talk about it.
McSally now up by 36 votes!
PS McSally has not won yet.
I think the democrats slung crap too especially Obama. Every flippin one of them lie…
With 2 losers running no one wins – especially we, the people.
Obama won. We are fine for four year. God loves Democrats.
The state of Arizona has been ruled by the Extreme right faction of the republican party for years, now. The majority of voters in Phoenix will keep it this way until the new demographics voters, independents and disenchanted republicans change things.
Never mind that the housing settlement funds went into the general fund, or that there just wasn’t enough road repair money to do the streets in democratic Tucson, or that they had to exclude lots of poor from healthcare, not to mention that it seems that any defeated or recalled republican politician is given a plushy party job.
Or perhaps, that this group is defying the Federal Government on healthcare, land rights and immigration and lots of other issues. Just keep thinking that the republican governor and legislature have balanced the State budget.
Well, it will either be the shortest two years (if Barber wins) or the longest two years (if McSally wins) either way it’s going to be two years of idiots pontificating and prognosticating. The 2014 election cycle starts about 0.05 seconds after the winner is announced. If Barber loses, he’ll go home to his wife here in town. If McSally loses, she’ll go somewhere else for her “job” because she’s not really from here, is she.
I think McSally will get a job from Kelly in Texas. We will see her in two years, they will try again.
