This guy, Jason Johnson, is a former Ted Cruz strategist, and now is at an outfit called J2 communications.

He posted a series of tweets discussing the #SalonHot25's/Weekly Standard's/Chuck Schumer's favorite liberalitarian Senator.

    7) Flake voted for S.2114 which increased Russia�s power at the International Monetary Fund

Flake is a snake in the grass.  Odds are, whether he had stayed or not, the seat is probably going Dem pick-up.  They're putting up a decent candidate, which doesn't happen very often in AZ.  She's sort of hot, but brags about being Bi.  Currently my Rep.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

I think that Kyrsten will pull a Kirsten and swing from Blue Dog to Left if she becomes Senator.

I have the opinion that most of the Republican Party, especially it's leadership are just like Flake, if not worse.

So - no "civil war" with me.

I seceded and divorced the party and am free.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

You don't need an Abacus to calculate that, friend.  It seems to be a feature of that seat.  DeCONcini held it before.
