...Hayworth ad cited as "one of the worst" immigration ads by the New Republic (via Wall Street Journal...)
...this should have been mentioned in my previous post, but on November 1, Al Gore will be in Scottsdale to host a fundraiser, apparently for Jim Pederson. (AZ Business Journal) I'll post more details as I get them.
...The AZ Republican Party has its claws out...for itself. As reported in many places, including the AZ Republic, the party is going after 3 West Valley Republican mayors (calling on them to resign from office) who endorsed Governor Napolitano. And denying any involvement.
Yeah, I'm having trouble figuring that part out, too. :)
...Bill Montgomery, Republican candidate for Arizona Attorney General, aka - Chief Law Enforcement Officer, was penalized by the Clean Elections Commission for misusing funds intended for use during the primary election. They penalized him $43,000 for filming and paying to air an ad on September 12.
September 12 was primary day.
The Commission determined that the ad could not have been intended for use during the primary. (AZCentral.com's Plugged In)
That decision is something we have come to NOT expect from governmental bodies in AZ.
It's sensible.
BTW - maybe someone should advise Mr. Montgomery that if he wants the voters to choose him to be Arizona's chief law enforcement officer, maybe he should obey those laws first.
Just something to think about...
...John McCain picked up another rival for the 2008 Republican nomination to lose the general election...errr..."the 2008 Republican Presidential nomination" :) when Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA) announced his candidacy. A week before the midterms.
Just a guess here, but I'm thinking that timing probably won't endear him to the GOP leadership.
...and in observance of Halloween, Maricopa County's own Sheriff Joe Arpaio was recognized as one of the 13 Scariest Americans by Old Trout Magazine. He's listed in the "Scariest Cop" category. Thanks to Desert Beacon in Nevada for the heads-up on this one.
