Blogs For McCain

I have suggested that it may be in the best intererst of Sen. McCain to resign from the Senate to focus on his presidential run. This would keep him from having to take stands on controversial issues which could hurt him with GOP primary voters or jeopardize his “maverick” image with Indy’s.

Of course with the results of Novembers election’s, the GOP could hardly afford to lose another senator (with Arizona having a Democratic Governor that would surely appoint a Democrat to fill the seat until the 2010 election.)

Thanks to Redstate poster Andrew F. Heil, we now have it confirmed that per Arizona law, Gov. Napolitano is legally required to appoint an interim Senator of the same party as the resigner.
