A Poll The poll by the Summit Consulting Group found Arpaio led other possible Republicans candidates for the Senate seat.
The poll reported 21 percent of likely GOP voters would choose Arpaio;
17 percent would vote for Rep. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.);
16.6 percent favored former Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R-Ariz.), who challenged Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in the 2010 GOP Senate primary;
12 percent would vote for Rep. John Shadegg (R-Ariz.) and
6 percent would choose freshman Rep. Ben Quayle (R-Ariz.).

Are you ready for Sen. Joe Arpaio? The next question is: "Can the Republican nominee beat Rep. Gabby Giffords?" - Tom

"The next question is: "Can the Republican nominee beat Rep. Gabby Giffords?""
I think it's more likely that Janet Napolatono runs.

The left totally despises this man. Look for them to saddle him with many frivalous law suites and investigations to drain his resources and time, as they did to Palin.

Run Joe and Go get em'! Start the Senate Select Committee to investigate the communists in our government!

If the Sheriff Joe runs I would donate a few shekels to his campaign. Dingy Harry would have a cinniption fit If Joe won a seat in the Senate.

“Arpaio, the conservative sheriff famous for his hard-line anti-immigration stances...”
First of all he's not “anti-immigration”, he's a sheriff and it's against the law to be in the United states illegally. Second, what does “hard-line” mean? “Hard-line” compared to what? When did enforcing the law become a hard-line position?
To: rightly_dividing
Actually he is not America's toughest sheriff. I don't know why his very open and public management style of criminals makes him tough? Since when is painting walls pink, or feeding inmates cheeseburgers, or making inmates watch news on the television, being tough?
I think he strikes a very healthy and safe balance between the public and the inmates safety. They both are best served by his actions.
I find nothing controversial about the man whatsoever. He's upfront, linear in thinking and actions, and does his job with steadfast consistency.

Arizonans could redeem themselves for constantly reelecting McCain.

Two reasons Joe Arpaio is not going to run
1: On June 14, 2011, Joe Arpaio will be 79 years of age
2: The second he leaves office, the long knives will be out. Investigations, ethics complaints, rumors, innuendo. Arpaio has made many enemies on both sides of the aisle and in the media. All of them will be out to nail him for something, anything.

I don’t believe he could serve our state and country so well in the state senate. Now, to the US Senate, only to there would I be willing to relieve him of his sheriffin’ job.
