Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) Faces Right-Wing Challenger
---------------------------------------------------



Republican Senator John Mc Cain of Arizona is facing a challenge from
the right in the Republican primary. Former Republican congressman and
right-wing radio host J.D. Hayworth launched his campaign to challenge
Senator John Mc Cain at a rally on Monday in Phoenix. Standing next to
Hayworth at his campaign launch were Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Chris
Simcox, the co-founder of the anti-immigrant Minutemen.
