He may have misspelled it in his email. I guess I could have included " (sic) " but oh well.

I'm 75 yr, so I don't have that many years lest. I'm just glad I'm not 20-something and have to deal with the GOP Christo-fascism that seems so rampant and growing. When SCOTUS gives state legislatures the power to declare their own RW candidates as winners, no matter the popular vote, well friends that is game over. I swear these RW Christo-Fascists are driving young people to socialism. Long ago, Marx predicted that capiltalism had its own built-in death. Because when just a few own everything, and the rest of us live in adject poverty working for peanuts, then that will cause the peasants to revolt.

I haven't looked it up, but this clown has never ran for office in his life. Telling your supporters that voting is useless, is asking to lose!
I guess when you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth, you just gotta be King.

...talk like a nazi, act like a nazi and hang around with other nazis... they're most definitely a nazi.

He's just to cowardly to publicly state it.

Kelly leads every poll by 4 to 13


In AZ Kelly is running lots of ads, all showing clips of Masters making stupid comments.

My favorite is one where he says that men should get paid more because they have all of the dangerous jobs, "Police officers are all men".

Mark Kelly's mother and father were both police officers.
