Fair enough.

Of course I want him to get better if possible, and I do think this diagnosis is unfortunate, just on the basis of simple humanity.

I had forgotten that. I probably haven't seen H2 since it first hit HBO a million years ago. I know I haven't seen the first one in 15 years.

And the Bushes and Reagan before that.

OH GREAT

I get that. My larger point was, it doesn't matter what he's like personally, so long as he votes with the worse/worst Republicans.

I've acknowledged that elsewhere. But for how long and for how much of his actions as a senator does that give him a pass for?

Go all to pieces, probably.

This is nothing I haven't said about him for decades, and often right here on the AVC.

You're right statewide. It's higher in Maricopa County, which should have meant getting rid of Arpaio sooner.

Arizona Latinos don't really have anyone to vote for. They have no end of candidates to vote against, but that's not quite the same.

No, you're absolutely right about that, and I've drawn that distinction better elsewhere in this comments section. As a member of Congress, I find him worse than worthless, though.

Who knows? Dennis DeConcini was the last one, and he left office in '95, and he was another one of the "Keating Five" anyway, so I don't know if I count him.

As I said above/below, I don't want him to have cancer, either. I don't want him to suffer more than he has.

That's astonishing. He never met anyone else he wouldn't peddle his ass to.

47. I wasn't born here.

I've been one of his constituents for 37 years now, and I think he's a spineless piece of shit.

Pinal County's Paul Babeu. His bigoted, formerly closeted ass is running for the House, unsurprisingly.

It would be beautiful to see him burn down.

I'm sorry. His whats? That shitbird almost always votes with the will of his awful party.
