Hillary didn't lose here as badly as some people may think. AZ already has one Dem Senator and will likely have 2 next January. And we have more Dem House members than Pubbie ones.

McSally is one of the 10 most unpopular Senators and it's only gotten worse for her since the impeachment...

We rejected her in 2018 and Commander Kelly will likely make her a 2-time loser.

And a lot of folks in Arizona don't appreciate the way Drumpf treated McCain. AZ is surrounded by blue states (not counting all them conservative Mormons to the north) but methinks come November it'll blend right in on the electoral map.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
