McCain and Hayworth faced off in two debates over the weekend.
On July 17, 2010 in Tucson, Arizona a debate hosted by KUAT PBS-6 was intended to be a debate on the issues facing Arizona. But at every opportunity, McCain threw out personal attacks on J.D., including calling him a "pig." This is a far different McCain than the one who debated and campaigned against Obama - and a far cry from what you would expect from a statesman.
The reality is, McCain has been attacking J.D. with negative advertisements since before J.D. even entered the race. McCain has spent in excess of $6 million attacking J.D.
In stark contrast, J.D. has only run one television ad throughout Arizona - which was an appeal from J.D.'s wife Mary for McCain to stop the personal attacks and discuss the issues. From all accounts, an unprovoked McCain has come out swinging - focusing on everything but the issues.
During the debate, Hayworth responded to McCain's attacks by stating, "If you had told the truth about Barack Obama the way you're spreading falsehoods about me, you might be president of the United States right now." No words could ring truer.
It is vital that J.D. gets his message to the voters of Arizona during the final month of the campaign. People need to know what we know - there is only one "consistent conservative" in this race. McCain has been in Washington too long and it is time we thank him for his service and bring him home.
Because there is just over a week before voters get early ballots - we need your contribution now so we can put it to good use before the majority of Arizona Republican primary voters vote the first week of August.
The very foundations of our republic are at stake. We need a Senator who truly believes in conservative principles and will stand up to the leftist agenda overrunning Washington. Your help is urgently needed to accomplish this.

How we wish it weren’t so, but McPain speaks for the people of AZ. They only know how to vote for those with name ID. Like the UT neighbors for Hatch
I read that American Spectator article after Rush talked about it today and it is very informative. As you said, it explains why McCain was respectful to Obama and not to people like JD.
“[Hayworth] was too “prepared” and “scripted” to be natural, showing that he came prepared to go for the jugular.”
I remember hearing Hayworth speak in special late night sessions on the House floor. He is very proper and ‘old style’, even when it’s spontaneous. So I can understand your feeling if he still lacks the grit required of a presidential candidate.
As for the ticket splitter, he’s been slandering Hayworth maliciously. The only ‘sin-certiy’ in his voice is ‘sin’.
And guess who McCain has endorsed in the Kansas primary for U.S. Senate...moderate Jerry Moran! Congressman Todd Tiahrt has the endorsement of Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Tea Party Express, Congressman Tom Tancredo, Dr. James Dobson, J.C. Watts, Congressman Mike Pence, and too many others to list. Get out there and vote for the true conservative in this race, Kansans!
That was one of my favorite lines in the debate.
He was also a local tv sportscaster.
lol for 50 bucks an hour I would pick lettuce until my hands bled... What’s with this- “Americans wouldn’t lower themselves to this kind of work” garbage?
I suppose maybe if I were a member of the ruling class like McStain it would be inconceivable.
If AZ keeps him in office they deserve to be over run by Mexicans. And that’s exactly what they’ll get.
Because of dire econimic reasons, I had to move from AZ to CA to avoid being homeless. I only wish that I could vote McCain out of office. My only consolation is that now CA has one more republican voter.
