10. I suppose you'd need to run a bill through the AZ legislature.
Both are Republican majority. I don't know whether that would work against us, with them seeing it as against their interests to risk an election, or if they'd favor it because they would get to pick the Republican candidate instead of having the Dem governor pick an easily-beaten hairdo.
9. Does it specify how long that person has to be a Republican before appointed
Hell, if Lieberman can change parties in the name of political expediency, why shouldn't some Arizona Democrat call him/herself a "Republican" just to get appointed by Janet.
Not that I think Gramps is going to retire anyway. He'll probably die on the Senate floor.
I expect that the DNC and all are doing their best to raise money for him given that it's the last active race, but in down-ticket races every little bit helps, particularly when he's not going to have the Obama surge to back him up.
