What you need to do is prove that Hayworth can win the election before you put down McCain and Sarah Palin.
With JD gaining 15 points in 2 months on McCain....with the GOP establishment supporting McCain....JD has a very good chance.
JD will also rally conservatives....which McCain cannot do
In fact.....the Dems will have an easy time with McCain with his support of TARP.....he will be blamed for the economic collapse.....both nationally and in AZ
The Liberal media will have a field day with Sarah if she cannot help McCain in the polls
I am not sure if Hayworth can carry Arizona.
