Brian Faughnan has an interesting post about the potential primary challenge to the mercurial John McCain by conservative former Rep. J.D. Hayworth. It seems that McCain alter ego Mark Salter was not above some truly nasty political hardball against Hayworth back in 2006. Well, I hereby “call out” Salter. Mr. Salter: You sir, are a low-life, pompous windbag. Actually, you don’t merit the honorific “sir.” Your email to Rep. Hayworth was beneath contempt. It is one thing to criticize the policy proposals of somebody else, as Rep. Hayworth did re the immigration policy. It is another thing to use a position of political power, a senator’s office, to threaten to spread stories that make it look as if an elected official (of your own party and state, at that) is involved in a scandal and potential illegality. What you did comes very close to blackmail. You are vermin.
