Is It Possible; McCain's Swansong?

[Pilgrim]

Probably the most interesting Republican primary election will be in AZ this year, with J.D. Hayworth challenging John McCain. It will be an uphill battle for Hayworth considering McCain's many advantages of incumbancy and his wife's bank account, but maybe - just maybe the good people of AZ will have decided they've had enough of this snarky moderate and his Democrat Light philosophy.

From the American Thinker:

[FONT=times new roman,times]The most recent online scores from the [/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times]American Conservative Union[/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times] are from 2008. In that year, [/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times]John McCain scored[/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times] 63 and had a lifetime average of 81.43. (All scores reported here are on a scale of zero to 100, with 100 being perfectly conservative according to the scorer.) His lifetime average put him in 32nd place in the 2008 Senate, or in the top 32%.[/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman,times]J.D. Hayworth's last full year in Congress was 2006. His [/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times]2006 ACU score[/FONT][FONT=times new roman,times] was 96, his 2005 score was 100, and his lifetime average was 97.56. His lifetime average put him in 16th place in the 2006 House, or in the top 4%.[/FONT]

American Thinker: McCain and Hayworth: Tale of the Tape

Having run one of the most ineffective presidential campaigns in recent memory and espousing more liberal causes than some Democrats, John McCain could very well be sent to the Arlen Specter wing of the Democrat party where he would blend in much better. It will be interesting to see if AZ is tired of McCain-Feingold types of legislation and his proposed blanket amnesty for the illegal Mexicans that are ruining their state.

I, for one, would be glad to see McCain go.

As would I.
