Felecia Rotellini
Democrat Felecia Rotellini, 2010's Attorney General election runnerup, announced that she's making another run for the AG post in 2014.

Also, we've found out what 2012 U.S. Senate election runnerup Richard Carmona's up to -- being the chairman of Rotellini's campaign.

As you may recall, Rotellini lost to Horne in 2010, and a rematch between the two wouldn't be unlikely.

Of course, Horne brings in a bit more baggage -- with the FBI looking into his office, Horne's alleged involvement in a campaign-finance scheme, his hit-and-run incident, and lest we forget, Horne's visits to Carmen Chenal's place.

In Rotellini's announcement yesterday, she says she'll bring back "focus" and, erm, "dignity" to the AG's Office.

I've thought about working at the AG's office - a cut in pay - but never wanted to put up with the political bullshirt you have to because these republicants are in office.  If she gets the nod, I'll defininately apply again.  She looks like an honest person to work for.  I can't stand these crooks I see in most law offices around town!

So happy that Felecia is running.  Time for Arizona to clean up!

I don't know her, but people who know her fairly well describe her as very smart with tremendous integrity.  Seems to me that this is exactly what the AZ AG's office needs right now.

@JohnQ.Public Agreed, JQP. I met her briefly at a fund raiser during the last campaign for AG. It would be really nice to have someone in the AG office who is more interested in WHAT they can do while being paid, than WHO they can do while being paid. I am anticipating that Bill Montgomery will probably run against Horne in a primary and then have to run against Rotellini in the general election. I don't think either of them can beat her in a general election, especially with the state party demonstrating a move toward a more centrist platform, in spite of Maricopa Repubs.

@Tommy_Collins "more interested in WHAT they can do while being paid, than WHO they can do while being paid."  Great line.

@JohnQ.Public @Tommy_Collins Thanks, JQP. Jaffy sent me that line and dared me to use it. He wrote, "I guarantee no one will even read it, especially that oxymoron, David. Not only that, but if anyone reads it I hope they catch cancer and die. But they are liberals and they don't catch cancer". That Jaffy is certainly a treat, don't you think? :-)

Being that she is a Democrat she does not stand a chance. She's really a dumb bitch if she thinks she can.

If joe doesn't get recalled, she will be able to get a grand jury to investigate him, in early 2015. Might be more fun than a recall!
