The best move forward for the GOP is to abandon the idea of using Primaries and instead pick Nominees in smoke-filled rooms, with only state party leaders allowed in.

Yeah, but seeing as they were firmly behind Jeb! I have a lot of doubts about the elites ability to pick votewinners as well.

Luther Strange is another example.

Safe D if Arpaio somehow wins. Not only will he alienate everyone, he'd be 85.

56-38 Sinema. Count on it.

It gives her a powerful personal narrative that she can use to make her case as an independent  Republican woman.

... No. A story about sexual abuse, how awful it is, is not going to erase the fact McSally is a terrible candidate who is pivoting to the far-right.

This is dumb. McSally isn't gonna get a boost just because of this.

Good for McSally for opening up. I dont think it really helps her in the primary, but its important to speak out. And since McSally isnt saying Sinema sexually abused her, I'm not sure it changes anything in the general either.

Just you wait. Sinema is bisexual after all. I'm sure some fringe right wing group may try something like this.

Perhaps I am missing something, but how does Sinema's sexuality figure into this at all?  McSally's abuser was male.

I know I was just making a sardonic joke about the cynicism of Republican attacks from superbudgie saying that "McSally isnt saying Sinema sexually abused her."

Yeah Sinema's got this. Though she needs to stop voting like a Alabama democrat.

If we count this seat as D gain, how many seats do we have before configuring in the other races?

Posted this in the AZ08 forum but thought I should post it here too:

Hiral won around 75% of independents.

This means the ABC15/OH poll that suggested Sinema winning 75% of Independents is accurate. wow.

They're finally stepping out of the land of rainbows and candy and realizing that they're in deep sh**t.
