State Representative Andy Tobin
Representative Andy Tobin was among a disturbing list of current and former state legislators endorsing John McCain for reelection issued today. Some of the names on that list were a bit of a shock, others not so surprising, like Rep. Bill Konopnicki.
Tobin comes as a bit of a surprise due to his persistent hints that he may get into the way-too-crowded CD-1 race. Rural AZ’s district is not friendly ground to McCain. This country is where the “Grass Roots” run the deepest. Calling them religion belivin’, gun clingin’ rednecks is a complement.
Either Tobin has resigned his ambitions for CD-1, or he is naive enough to think that this will help him. Either way, this was not a good move, unless you hope to enlist the support of the McCain Machine…. which still won’t help you!
Below is the list on legislators endorsing McCain, as published earlier by the MAC Camp:
