And the Republican to beat in next year’s GOP primary race for Arizona governor is … Kari Lake.
Let me be the first to acknowledge just how wrong I was about the longtime newscaster-turned-politician.
When Lake entered the race for governor on June 1, I greatly underestimated her chances. I just couldn’t envision how a lifetime of reading a news script equips one with the right stuff to run a state of more 7 million people.
But Lake’s got the only qualification that apparently matters:
A bellyful of anger — and that plays well with the far right that has taken over the Republican Party.
