Looks like Martha McSally might be a Senator after all. :)

I think this was the back up all along which is why she rolled over so easily during the last election, just a thought.

Apparently she's not that good at it, given who she lost to.

Other than himself, who else could Ducey have realistically appointed?  And doing that immediatly after winning reelection would probably be a bad move.  GOP has a thin bench in AZ at the moment.

As I get older, I realize more and more that Republicans play at politics, whereas Democrats operate like it was a cutthroat business.

Just seems that way sometimes.

Yep, pretty much.  One of the reasons they are called "The Stupid Party".

Controlled opposition often looks stupid.
