AZ-Sen, AZ-Gov: Statewide Recruitment Thread

http://swingstateproject.com

Continuing our totally excellent series of threads on recruitment possibilities for senatorial and gubernatorial contests in 2010, we now turn our attention to Arizona, where things could get very interesting.
Popular incumbent Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano is term-limited, and she seems to be everyone's first choice to run for the Senate seat of John McCain, which will also be up in 2010. It remains to be seen whether McCain will run for another term (I bet not, but you never know), but Napolitano's name has already been floated as a potential Attorney General pick in the Obama Administration, which would take the most obvious choice off the table.

Supposing that Napolitano can't or won't make a Senate run in 2010, who might the Democrats run in her place? Who would step up for the Republicans if McCain calls it quits? And, for that matter, who should run for the Governor's office in the Copper State?

He's our current Dem Atty General. He should win easily since there will undoubtedly be a bloodbath in the GOP primary. Too many prominent Rs are casting their names about and none of them is especially impressive. As for Senate if Napolitano doesn't maybe Gabby Giffords (D from Tucson) or someone from the business community. I'd like to see a guy by the name of John Adams run. He's a retired General who supported Obama. He was a DNC delegate and was the first flag officer to walk on stage during the part of the convention when they showcased Obama's military support.
