A
year ago Former Senator Russell Pearce was "King of the Hill' and touted
as being the de facto Governor.
What
a differnce a year makes Pearce is in a tough GOP primary with Bob Worsley who
is running circles around him with high profile endorsements and outraisng him
in campaign funds. Pearce who is running to reclaim his Senate seat lost in a
recall election has been plagued with questionable endorsements on his signs,
the Olivia Cortes scandal in the recall election, Fiesta Bowl and several other recent gaffe's.
It seems he lost the support of Gov. Jan Brewer was the most
high-profile defender of Russell Pearce during his recall.
Governor
Brewer tells Arizona Capital Times “I’m not inclined to,” Brewer said today when
asked if she would endorse Pearce. Pearce who is
running to reclaim in lost Senate seat in a recall election. It appears she is backing away from the ousted Senate president,
and said she has no plans to endorse him.
Brewer doesn't
seem she wants to be associated with a loser. Since he lost to Jerry Lewis in
the recall election, the Gov didn't share her tickets to the U.S. Supreme Court
hearing on SB1070 in April.
I did not try to
reach Pearce for a comment. It is what it is.
