2. First time I have watched her speak. Extremely articulate and genuine!

She may be President one day.

3. No policy goals

Platitudes about working together and country over party.

4. Speculation on Kyl replacement

Thought I would try returning to an afternoon nap/meditation Monday. Unfortunately my inner clock is out of sync and I am up early reading a diary on dkos about the Arizona Senate race.

Gov. Ducey could replace Kyl with McCain or McSally. These are the two most discussed but Ducey may have his own sycophant in waiting. We will know soon enough.

If you care to read the entire diary on dkos, the link is below.

The author includes a link to an old Arizona Republic article with local sourcing.

Other possible candidates include:

Kirk Adams, Ducey's chief of staff who runs the governor's day-to-day operations.
Barbara Barrett, a business executive and the first Republican woman to run for governor in Arizona.
Michael Bidwill, the president of the Arizona Cardinals and longtime Ducey ally who went to prep school with Judge Brett Kavanaugh, Trump's Supreme Court nominee.
Jon Kyl, a former three-term senator and mentor to Ducey. (fait accompli*)
Former congressmen John Shadegg and Matt Salmon

5. Wow! Count All The VOTES!

She's a sweetheart. Love her dress for her acceptance speech!

I like how she thanked McSally and then a little awhile later tore into the differences between the 2 campaigns.

KS certainly honored John McCain.. It probably helped a lot that trump did nothing but DISS him.

Wonder if Meghan will have anything disrespectful to say about Sinema?
