OP
You're not from Arizona, are you? As I said elsewhere, this is the Third Rail of Arizona politics.

No, I'm from Texas which seems to literally worship guns. It's still common sense.

I love the guy, and his wife, but anyone who see him as a likely win simply doesn't have a clue about Arizona politics.

The more I think about it, the more I'm worried that his candidacy will encourage the Republicans to abandon McSally and run someone more hard core.
Again, if he runs on and assault-weapon ban, he'll massively boost Republican turnout, lose most independents, and alienate a good number of Democrats.
