I agree that J.D. is a more reliable conservative. But Arizona is not a Republican state anymore. The fact is that incumbents have a huge advantage over challengers. If Republicans are serious about taking over Congress, they won’t throw their 2008 nominee under the bus even if there is someone a little better but probably unelectable based on his past performance. After all, if it weren’t for McCain, would conservatives even know the name Sarah Palin?
