Kelli Ward melts down over Arizona Republic's support for Martha McSally

Laurie Roberts, Arizona Republic Published 11:55 a.m. MT Aug. 6, 2018 | Updated 9:02 a.m. MT Aug. 7, 2018

Kelli Ward went into meltdown mode overnight, attacking reporters and generally having a Twit-fit because she didn’t win The Arizona Republic’s endorsement for the open Senate seat.

For the record, she also didn’t win Donald Trump’s endorsement, or former Sen. Jon Kyl’s endorsement, or former Gov. Jan Brewer’s endorsement.

She didn’t win former House Newt Gingrich’s endorsement or the National Federation of Independent Business’s endorsement either. Funny, I don’t recall her becoming unhinged over those slights.

But The Republic endorses her opponent and suddenly Ward flies into a tirade.

Then came Ward's tweetstorm

that she be given John McCain's Senate seat when he first announced his deadly brain cancer.

That was crass and even beyond republican standards of decency.
