Last edited Fri Sep 6, 2019, 03:29 PM - Edit history (1)
Arizona GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward said in a fundraising email that the GOP would stop U.S. Senate candidate Mark Kelly (D) dead in his tracks, the Washington Post reports.
Wards choice wording stands out not only because Kelly is an ardent gun control advocate, but because he took up the cause after his wife, former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, survived an assassination attempt in which a gunman killed six people and left Giffords with traumatic brain injuries.

While AZ may be turning purple, the repubs that are left are some of the worst in the country: Ward, Schweikert, Gosar and on and on.

(31,261 posts)I recently saw a Trump sticker on the back of a nice SUV, that was unusual. So I glanced over as I passed the SUV, in the driver's seat was a late fiftish blond woman, she did not look toward me, but I could see a smug, cold look on her face, the world was about her and the few that she cared about, it all was somewhat jarring and I was glad when my light turned green so that I could get far away from that apparent asshole.

(282 posts)That is Kelli Ward. Long time wing nut in Arizona. Gee, Mark taking action after his wife is severely injured by a gun. THAT'S what they are going to use to smear him? Wow, Kelli is even dumber than I thought. Maybe by having Ms Wing Nut in charge, the repubs are indeed imploding in AZ. We can only hope.
