Fox News correspondent Geraldo Rivera voiced some of the speculation buzzing around who will fill the late Sen. John McCain’s seat, making his pitch Sunday for the Senator’s wife, Cindy McCain.
#CindyMcCain is well-qualified & should be appointed to fill Senate seat now vacated by death of hero husband #JohnMcCain

Cindy McCain’s name has reportedly been tossed around by many speculators, pros being that the choice would satisfy the family’s wishes and that she likely wouldn’t run for reelection in 2020, cons being that her politics are largely unknown.
The choice ultimately falls to Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, who has said that out of respect for the late Senator, his replacement will not be announced until after the burial.
Ducey is walking a thin line to pick someone more amenable to hardcore Arizona Republicans, but not someone so drastically different from McCain as to insult his legacy.
She would be perfect
I suspect she is not a fan of Trump
Not sure if she would be perfect… but IMO she is the best choice to continue to keep pressure on Trump
Thing is Republican Governor Ducey is going to be pressured by the Alt-right into a FreeDumb caucus style senator.
This gives him an easy out
No doubt a better choice than obnoxious daughter Meghan.
Stormy Daniels would be a better choice.
