Arizona's Jeff Flake announces he will not seek re-election to U.S. Senate
AZCentral, Oct 24, 2017

Condemning the nastiness of Republican politics in the era of President Donald Trump, Sen. Jeff Flake on Tuesday announced he will serve out the remainder of his term but will not seek re-election in 2018.

The bombshell, which Flake, R-Ariz., intended to detail Tuesday afternoon on the Senate floor, will further roil Republican hopes of keeping the party's 52-seat Senate majority in the midterm elections of Trump's first term, when the president's party historically loses seats in Congress.

It also likely will upend the race for Flake's seat.

One more McConnell supporter gone.

Watch for damage being done in the Senate before Jan 2019 as the incumbents decide a scorched earth policy is the agenda.

Democrats commit blood libel on republicans for years and years and these clowns just sit there with stupid smiles on their faces. Trump Tweets some juvenile insult and suddenly they're reduced to tears.

Good riddance to dishonest trash.

Another Democrat caucusing Republican gone. Now, we have to wait for John to kick the bucket and that will be a two-fer. Next on list would be to get Alaska back in a 'real' Republican hands.


If we can get rid of all the Democrats in the Republican Party, it is possible that the Republicans may wind up a an actual majority after all. It certainly is getting interesting.

It will be interesting to see what comes out of the woodwork as a result of his retirement.   I'll be expecting you to keep me filled in on the inside baseball stuff.

When you have the Democrats screaming and crying over a so called Republican leaving office, well, that's when you really know what's what.

That "Gang of Eight" story was a full month BEFORE Flake was even inaugurated!  Not even sworn in, and he was turning on his own constituents so he could chum up with McCain.
