"This race has national importance for a number of reasons, one of which is it will demonstrate that for a majority of Republicans, John McCain was near the bottom of candidate choices in the 2008 primary. Initially, he could only win through the wide dilution of conservative votes, spread over several candidates. If –instead- of voting on which presidential candidate we actually wanted, we were voting on the one whom we found the LEAST palatable, McCain would have probably won that “inverse-election” by a land-slide. If it were a reality TV show, the Senator would have been quickly “booted off...

Abdallah faces up to eight years in prison when he is sentenced in August. In November, five former HLF officials were convicted on 108 counts... |

Temporary Sales Tax Increase- Lack of Governance

| Now that the "temporary" sales tax is heading to the ballot, I think we must shine a light on the predicament we find ourselves in. The legislature kept referring to it as a revenue increase as if they were rolling out some new product line that would increase sales. Government of any kind, at any level, is not a revenue generator, they are overhead. In life you have the revenue generators (in this particular equation, you and me) and then you have the corporate office (the government bureaucracy). After closing my doors last year, I returned to work at a... |

| Woods may switch from GOP to DemsHe's co-chairman of Salmon's campaign for governor By Chip ScutariThe Arizona Republic Oct. 25, 2002 Grant Woods, one of Arizona's most popular Republicans and co-chairman of Matt Salmon's gubernatorial campaign, is considering jumping to the Democratic Party after the Nov. 5 election. The defection of the former state attorney general would be a coup for Arizona Democrats, who have been courting moderates. Chairman Jim Pederson said he'd be thrilled to have Woods join the party. "He's a thoughtful, articulate person," said Pederson. Republican Party Chairman Bob Fannin didn't want to comment. Woods said he... |
Arizona lawmakers a joke to prez? They want eligibility document; Obama's not paying attention

Posted by admin / Under Arizona
| Nearly half the members of the Arizona House of Representatives already have signed on in support of a measure that would require presidential candidates to document their constitutional eligibility for the office in 2012, but Barack Obama apparently isn't paying any attention. A question about Obama's eligibility was raised at today's White House news briefing, and as before, spokesman Robert Gibbs turned it into a joke. But 40 of the 90 members of the Arizona House are co-sponsors of the plan, HB 2441, and it already has been approved at the committee level. Such a requirement by a single state... |
