Last night’s debate in Arizona between John McCain and J.D. Hayworth, their first, turned out to be a bit of slugfest, even though McCain is crushing Hayworth in the polls. A sample, from McCain: “Congressman Hayworth is a pretty persuasive guy. After he was voted out by his constituents he became a lobbyist, then after that a talk show host, and then after that an infomercial host.” Eric Kleefeld burned the midnight oil and has our report.
