ARIZONA GOVERNOR BREWER BACKS AWAY FROM ENDORSING FORMER SENATOR PEARCE


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.
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.
