I think that's an accurate description.

Like Hillary's supporters said, "It's her turn". What is government, a kickball game?

This instills a belief only the "Elite" can serve in elected positions.

McCain served his country. Time to let someone else step up to the challenge.

One McCain was to much for the country! We don't need another McCain to continue, especially when they are RINO's. If Ms Cindy does run, she should run as a democrat or a socialist which the McCains are. Who will run when Cindy is done? Her daughter?
Enough of these "Dynasties" already....Hopefully the people of Arizona "Wake Up" and reject this notion.....

Hey, I want on the McCain hate train, but Ducey's appointing his wife ain't McCain's fault. It's 100% on the governor.

Yep.
... and today is May 30.

The Washington Post reports this week that the uncertainty around McCain, who has been absent from the Senate since December, has “set off a flurry of hushed conversations and concerns” inside the Republican Party, particularly about whom Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey should appoint as McCain’s successor if the need arises. “The problem,” as one unnamed Republican put it, is that there is no “logical” or “obvious” choice among the party’s rank-and-file. Ducey is up for re-election himself, and if he is looking only for an interim replacement, two relatively safe names jump out: McCain’s wife, Cindy, and former U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl. But neither is seen as an ideal candidate to hold the seat long-term.

The bigger question, then, is not whom Ducey would appoint to fill McCain’s seat, but instead whom voters would select if they have the chance. And that’s where things get complicated—not just in a still-hypothetical special election but also in the heavily watched regular Senate election in November.

Under the most common reading of the state’s election laws, if McCain leaves the Senate before May 30, the ensuing special election would follow the same schedule as a regular midterm one: Party primaries would be held in August, and then the race would be decided on Nov. 6. But if McCain were to leave after May 30, his appointed successor would most likely get a free ride until 2020. Given the way the current political winds are blowing, both nationally and in Arizona, the two parties’ electoral preferences are clear even if neither will say them aloud for obvious reasons: Republicans would rather defend the seat in 2020; Democrats would prefer to expand the battleground map this fall.

Is this the same Cindy McCain that sat on the View and blathered on about President Trump and nepotism and how it has no place in the interest of the country?

That, Cindy McCain?

Yep. Piece of work.

Hell hath no fury like a woman whose husband's been scorned. This won't be good!
