Jim Nintzel over at the Weekly had a take on the Governor’s race that I’m very surprised that I haven’t heard more:
[I]t’s bad news for Dave Bradley, the state lawmaker from midtown Tucson who was mulling a gubernatorial run. Given how little name ID he has statewide, Bradley’s odds were long to begin with, but [...]
