Lake has serious people campaigning for for her. Ducey, DeSantis, Youngskin and Tulsi Gabbard. Meanwhile No Democrats wants to campaign for Hobbs and the only 2 people for her are Liz Cheney and Kinzinger.
No big guns in the Democrat party are coming for Hobbs. They are running away from her.
Very courageous of her. I hope she supports more Republicans.
To me, she seems like just another oddball political figure to grab a bit of attention amid a fading career. Her extremist ideas never did seem to fit into the Democratic Party, IMHO.
We Democrats tend not to tolerate demagogues. Gabbard has been selling unorthodox views of various types for some time. How she was able to hold onto her House seat after meeting with brutal Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad always was puzzling to me. Her type of adulation for authoritarianism just can't be sold to Democrats, so its easy to see why she left the party after her weird run and massive defeat for the Democratic presidential nomination followed by that radical performance at CPAC. Tulsi & Kari now, eh?
Kari Lake is an opportunist and a conspiratorialist herself so in some respects it is easy to see why Tulsi is trying to hang onto Lake's extremist anti-democratic MAGA Republican coattails.
Anyone who regards Donald Trump as the second coming, as Lake does, is a nut. Tulsi Gabbard is as shallow as Kari Lake and the former TV media figure is as shallow as her pancake makeup.
They and their MAGA Republicanism are clear and present dangers to the nation and democracy. Over 60% of Americans will have a MAGA Republican election denier on their ballot in 2022. Big Lie Trump promoters, MAGA Republican religious zealots and conspiracy peddlers of all stripes are Trump MAGA candidates. They believe the only votes that matter are those cast for the GOP. Most, like Lake, when asked, refuse to say they will accept the results if they lose. Their interest is attention for power not effective governing. Democracy is on the line. Putting GOP candidates such as Lake and now the latest convert to MAGA, Tulsi Gabbard--- who most likely will run for something in 2024--- in power could upend the crucial American ideal of free and fair elections and our very democracy. God help Arizona and the USA.

What "extremist" ideas is that? Push for endless wars and to WW 3 nuclear war? Tell you what, you can take war monger Liz Cheney to your party and We will take Tulsi.
Are DeSantis and Youngskin also "extremists" because they are campaigning for Lake? . Funny, not even Kelly wants to be seen next to Hobbs.
Meh. Gabbard is a flash in the pan that will soon fizzle and disappear. You can't make it in one party so you switch ideologies? That's pretty transparent to those of us who see fake and phony. I think you lose street cred when you do that.

Funny post, since the list of politicians that left a party is huge.
Reagan, Andrew Yang, Joe Lieberman, Susana Martinez (former governor of NM), Condoleezza Rice, Mike Pence, Elizabeth Dole, McMullin, George Will, Joe Scarborough, Kyrsten Sinema, Michael Bloomberg, Charlie Crist, Colin Powell. The list is long. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o..._United_States
It's shows more the huge credibility problems of the permanent establishment in D.C. in both parties. At least Tulsi didn't sellout her principles of fighting endless wars and getting us closer to WW 3 madness. I can't say the same about the current Democrat party.
