Last Thursday evening Represent Me Arizona sponsored a forum for the five Democrats seeking to replace Martha McSally.
Seated left to right are Billy Kovacs, Mary S. Matiella, Matt Heinz, Ann Kirkpatrick and Bruce Wheeler. (Individual pictures/biographies/etc. are on the Represent Me Arizona website.)
I will be enthusiastically supporting whichever one of the five wins the primary. Each one brings special strengths to the fight. Hopefully the eventual winner will be able to channel the strengths of the other four, and the supporters of the other four will be able to quickly transfer their passions to the winner of the primary. Arizona's primary is late, the Tuesday before Labor Day, which makes Labor Day unity rallies critical. A clear front runner will probably emerge well before primary day (some might say that she already has). It will be essential for supporters of the other four not to feel like they have been railroaded. I believe that Represent Me Arizona will be adept in keeping everyone focused on the prize. For now, I really hope that all five primary candidates will have a good chance right up until the polls close on August 28.
If Martha McSally does decide to jump over to the senate primary race, going on a suicide mission to save the Republican party from its Kelli Ward nightmare, it will be because McSally decided that her CD2 re-election was already a lost cause.
