(67,817 posts)It was fun watching him, but it was kind of a sugar high. He's a far right near-Teabagger and now he's not right enough for the nut jobs in the AZ primaries. AZ electing a Diem senator is a Hail Marry pass at best. So that means that woman (what's her name) who is worse than Roy Moore will get the nomination and like a Senate seat.
I wish it weren't so.

And there is actually lots of good economic news lately thanks to the legacy of President Obama. I expect that to change soon
