U.S. Senator John McCain is asking for funds as the strong threat of a Republican primary challenger looms heading into 2016. Tuesday afternoon he made a hard push for contributor cash to Friends of John McCain email subscribers.
McCains appeal letter opens by thanking supporters, and acknowledges his 2016 campaign would face a unique set of challenges.
McCain writes, Im going to be the target of a wide array of powerful groups, meaning conservative critics. The letter invites the reader to help to build a formidable campaign organization. He adds, There are few certainties in life, then tries to encourage backers: I am certain I will not be able to run for re-election unless I have your support.
The McCain team is clearly reaching out to his base. The letter targets Obamas foreign policy and cites Americas vulnerability because of a weak strategy thats emboldened our enemies. The result is that our nation is now in greater danger than at any time in our lives, the letter adds.
The letter asks the reader to stand with McCain at this pivotal time, calling contributions to his campaign much needed.
At the close of the email McCain indicates his decision whether to run will come soon while suggesting a donation will help that decision along. I need to know where you stand.
The letter contained no fewer than six links to donate to the campaign.

Come Arizonians help America, throw McCain out of office.
McCain showing a little clarity for once? Interesting timing.
Go away, Juan. Just go away.
I’ll say this. I will lose all respect for Gov. Palin if she supports this turd next year.
I concur. John, don’t go away mad, just go away.
You
Lose?
Is anyone looking at running against him?
That explains McCain’s head fake to the right.
You would think that since he has to FAKE conservative to get re-elected, the voters might actually WANT a conservative.
Na, must be my imagination.
AZ needs to get rid of McCain, Grijalva and Flake.
But, realistically, has anyone even said they were going to run against him? I haven't heard anything.
AZ voters are not happy. Governor Ducey sold them out on Common Core. Diane Douglas (Chairman, State Board of Education) sold them out on Common Core and Mexican-American studies at Tucson Unified School District. AZ has a very bad taste for RINO’s at this time. The lady considering challenging McCain is State Senator Kelli Ward. She has a consistent, proven conservative record.
Hey John, Ted Kennedy wants to see you.
I stand with your challengers. I will never forgive nor forget your actions in the Gang of 14. What you did on that day was dispicable. McCain you should be ashamed.
The worthless DemocRat needs to retire.
McCain is one of the few congressman I would actively support his opponent financially outside of my own representatives...
I despise him almost as much as I do Obama...
