Republican Arizona Senator Jon Kyl retires, Hayworth bonanza

The story is mostly about the third most Right-wing Republican in the Senate [behind only Jim DeMint and newcomer Rand Paul] and the opening it leaves in GOP leadership. That it now puts Texas Senator John Cornyn as second in command behind Minority Leader Urtle the Turtle McConnell. Exit of minority whip clears path for Cornyn

The far more interesting story here is not so boring. Though not mentioned in the accompanying source material, this gives Right-wing talk radio show host and Rush Limbaugh clone J. D. Hayworth a much better show shot at becoming the junior Senator from Arizona than he had last time running against long time incumbent John McCain.
An open primary field with no entrenched nasty old man to run against. When he wins the General election (not if as I expect him to get 94% of the vote) he will easily surpass DeMint and stand along side Rand Paul as the Right-wing Clowns of the Senate.

Hayworth is the perfect fit for the most bigoted gunc crazy state in America. Where Mexicans are held lower than dogs and 30 round clips held higher than Gods. Do not ever lose track of what the 30 round clips are for and why there is no Republican discussion of regulation them. They are necessary for nutcakes to shoot Democrats, bigots to shoot Mexicans and Tea Party patriots to shoot "our troops" when necessary.  Oh, and wabbits, they are very very poor shots in Arizona.  

The accompanying picture is of Congressman J.D. Hayworth in the Well of the United States Congress what seems to be squeezing the pee out of a bloody fetus.
