		<description>If people really think McCain will win, then they are even more free to vote for JD to show McCain their level of discomfort.  If the polls were close McCain would actualy get those votes from undecideds nervous about JD actually winning.

Many conservatives are going to take those whopping McCain poll numbers and use that to justify, with no actual risk of him winning, a vote for JD.

Same applies to Brewer, and Mills.  I would include Martin but he endorsed Brewer so voting for him is no protest against Brewer at all.

In the end McCain should be embarrassed he had to fight like a humdinger against sizable elements in his own party to get the nomination.</description>

		<description>Winning a Tea Party poll is like winning a JD Hayworth look alike contest.  It looks funny and means nothing.</description>

		<description>Looks like a totally relevant poll to me! Man, and to think all this time I though JD was going to lose.

What a relief.</description>

		<description>Funny how JD just won the Tea Party poll.

I received this e-mail:

A message from Arizona Tea Party to all members of AZ Senate Race Poll Group on Arizona Tea Party Network!

The poll has been closed.  Please see results below:

J.D. Hayworth: 73.5%
Jim Deakin: 18.9%
John McCain: 7.6%</description>

		<description>I want my country back. 

Jimmy Lee Deakin Jr. US Senate 2010. 


Ann: &quot;His image is so tarnished, folks can’t imagine what he can do. All those folks, Haney and others…who convinced him he could win are complicit. Their hatred for McCain coupled with JD’s delusional opinion of himself has ruined this man’s life.&quot; don&#039;t you people get it - where are your processing skills THIS LADY SPEAKS WITH COMMON SINCE.</description>

		<description>In the past week I have spoken to several folks who were considering Hayworth.  Varied reasons for their inclinations, but all very conservative voters. People I work with, go to church with, family, friends, and clients.  Even a few random meetings.

It seems people are cementing their views just before the early ballots drop.

To a person, they are sticking with McCain.  JD is quite simply in their opinion...unelectable.

The latest polling shows they are among the huge number voting for McCain who is ahead by over 40 points!

This is at JD&#039;s own hand and no other cause.

He makes it worse with every smug word, overly rehearsed quip, and tilt of his huge head.

All the blame game and finger pointing only serves to makes folks more sure that he is one bad guy, unable to stand up on his own and take responsibility, who cannot be trusted to be anything other than what he has proven himself to be...an egotistical, money-driven, self-promoter that would sell his soul if it meant a bigger headline or a better home for Miss Mary. 

And I take those words from their comments....

One common note from all...what will he do for a living now?  No way does he get his job at KFYI back.  Broomhead is rocking the ratings and getting a bigger audience; that sells more ads and cements his position.

These folks all wondered why he couldn&#039;t just keep his mouth shut and keep his job.  But he had to be the man..the guy who brought down John McCain.

Instead, he destroyed his own reputation and any chance of a future in the public domain.

His image is so tarnished, folks can&#039;t imagine what he can do.  All those folks, Haney and others...who convinced him he could win are complicit.  Their hatred for McCain coupled with JD&#039;s delusional opinion of himself has ruined this man&#039;s life.      

He may have done it to himself, but he also did it to his family.</description>

		<description>Can&#039;t wait for the debates. I&#039;m sure there will be polling afterward and we will know more.

It is becoming more obvious to more people that JD Hayworth, given his past record of fiscal irresponsibility and his obvious tendency to run a poor campaign, will continue to fall in the polls. This will then lead to more decline.

If JD Hayworth had come forward to re-enter the political scene and had a vision for the future and some humility about his past, he could have gotten his seat back from the Democrats who are imploding or he could of helped one of the Republicans in CD5 get the seat back from Mitchell. 

Unfortunately, he chose to run on the past, misrepresent his record - consistent conservative - and take aim at a Republican instead of a Democrat.

Hayworth has worked harder to bash Republican John McCain than he did with Harry Mitchell - then and now. 

Hayworth did all this based on old grudges and bravado. This is not a recipe for success. That&#039;s why JD is losing.</description>

		<description>Shane, first, I love the shirt, well done on that one.

But my question is when have we taken anything out of context? 

Was it when JD said, &quot;Caveat emptor, buyer beware,&quot; about his free money infomercial and then later apologized when he realized the backlash? &quot;I don&#039;t want to offend anybody&#039;s sensibilities, but I have a four letter word for you, real, this is is real.&quot;

Was it when JD said, &quot;We did not declare war on Germany?&quot; 

Was it when JD considered &quot;Drive a stake through his heart&quot; said in Newsweek magazine, a death threat?

Was it when JD said the law in Massachusetts for same-sex marriage would lead to marrying your horse?

Was it when JD was still talking about the president and his birth certificate?

There are probably more, I forget now, there have been so many.</description>

		<description>Boo hoo!! OMG, is that what a &quot;Sen. Hayworth&quot; will do when he&#039;s attacked by the DNC in Washington or called a name by the likely soon-to-be Senate Majority Leader Schmucky Schumer? 

CRY?? 

Follow the sage advice that Vito Corleone gave while slapping a whimpering Johnny Fontane in the Godfather...&quot;you can act like a man!!&quot; 

Grow up, JD and supporter. Act like a man, stop your whining, or, please, go home.</description>

		<description>There is NOTHING wrong with videotaping JD Hayworth just as there is NOTHING wrong or illegal with taping John McCain. What is wrong, unprofessional or unbecoming is when one tapes someone and then edits the tape in a manner that falsely portrays that person. That was my point in the post. It is the MO of Team McCain to do this and ultimately it is unbecoming of a US Senator, especially at this point in his life, to behave in such a manner.</description>

		<description>Anyone with more than two minutes on their hand can look at the lastest poll and see that it is a sham. They polled registered voters, not likely voters. They even surveyed Democrats. Only telling poll will be the one on Aug 24. Remember this is a primary, only engaged voters vote in off year primaries. No one I know is engaged or excited or planning on voting for McCain.</description>

		<description>For the record Matt Ligouri the young gentleman appearing in this video lives in LD17 and has been attending LD17 meetings for awhile. He is also on the ballot running as a PC in LD17. He had as much right to be there as anyone else. He certainly had as much or more reason as DSW.

And what is so wrong with him filming JD Hayworth? Some other people there were filming (not just JD staffers either) and taking pictures as well. Its not like this was a private event. It was a public PC meeting. JD should expect that he will have his picture taken or videos taken at a public event.

If JD wants to be a Senator and play in the &quot;big leagues&quot;, he needs to grow up and quit having his staff cry over someone taking videos.</description>
