Jeff Flake Endorses Mitt Romney

Dear Readers,

Have you heard that Jeff Flake endorsed Mitt Romney? If you haven’t heard, then let me tell you, Jeff Flake endorsed Mitt Romney. That’s great, because I endorse Mitt Romney, too. And I think this endorsement is a big deal because it basically seals the deal for Mitt Romney winning Arizona. Well, what do I know? Maybe it doesn’t.

Speaking of Flake, no one’s running against him for the Senate seat, the one that Jon Kyl is leaving open. Well, one guy is challenging Flake, but he has no chance. I guess the guy isn’t campaigning at all, so it makes me think he’s in it for the Arizona Clean Elections money. I think they need to abolish or dramatically reform Arizona Clean Elections, because it’s getting pretty dirty.

(Update on October 20, 2011: I made a mistake. It turns out that only candidates for state offices can get Clean Elections money. Federal candidates cannot. Sorry.)

I don’t know if a Democrat is going to bother running for the Arizona Senate seat. A Democrat doesn’t have a chance of winning a Senate seat in Arizona, especially in the current political climate.

I’m a little upset that no one’s seriously running against Jeff Flake, but then again, I wouldn’t want to be the guy running against him. Jeff Flake is like a juggernaut around here. And he’s a pretty good politician, compared to most politicians. He’s a pretty good conservative.

And speaking of Mitt Romney, this presidential election has pretty much become the Rick Perry and Mitt Romney show. Rick Perry is leading, but not by a ton. It looks like it will be a long hot primary season. Romney will win some states, Perry will win some states, but who will win the most states?

Mitt Romney appeals more to swing voters and independents than Perry. I think the polls are showing that if the general election were held now, Mitt Romney would beat Obama by a lot. But if Rick Perry were the nominee, it would be close.

So, if there are any independents or Democrats reading this, I have a message for you:

You know that Obama’s toast, right? I mean, even if you like the guy, you need to understand that the polls are showing that he’s going to be defeated in 2012. So you need to decide between Romney and Perry. So, can I ask you a favor, one voter to another? Change your party affiliation to Republican so you can vote in the primary. I know that might be hard for some of you to do. But don’t worry, you can change it right back after this one little vote. And you don’t even have to tell anyone that you briefly transformed into a Republican. It will be our little secret, OK? And if you don’t like the idea of being a principled Republican, well then, be an unprincipled Republican! All that matters right now is that you are a Republican in name only(RINO).

Oh, and then once you're registered as a Republican, then vote for Mitt Romney. Duh!

Or if you live in a state where anybody can vote in the primaries, then I guess you don’t have to be registered as a Republican.

Mitt Romney 2012!

Sincerely,
Telemoonfa

P.S. Oh, and Sheriff Joe, can you endorse Romney too please? You endorsed him last time. You would look consistent if you endorsed him again. And Rick-amnesty Perry is so much of an amnesty-lover that I just nicknamed him Rickamnesty! And I don’t divvy out nicknames willy-nilly! Illegal immigration is so totally your issue, Sheriff Joe, you know! Your America’s toughest sheriff! So it just makes sense that you should endorse Mitt Romney!

To continue with my tradition of censorship, I deleted a comment. Here it is, edited:

"You are so utterly stupid that you don't realize that no federal candidates get Clean Elections money, only state candidates.

Just what kind of BEEP are you?"

And my response to the comment is, I don't appreciate you calling me utterly stupid, and I don't appreciate you cussing. But thank you for pointing out my error. I corrected it in the blog post.

I've heard stories before of sham candidates who basically steal thousands of dollars from the Arizona Clean Elections Fund.

And you can't blame me for suspecting something sneaky about Wil Cardon. People who run for office who have no chance interest me.

Look, I hope Wil Cardon does have a chance. But I don't think he does.
