SCOTTSDALE, AZ–With just seven days remaining until the mid-term elections, the National Republican Congressional Committee has allocated its remaining $256 million cash-on-hand to Arizona incumbent J. D. Hayworth’s campaign, in the hopes of retaining at least one House seat. “Considering Rep. Hayworth’s strong stance against terrorism and this infusion of money, we’re feeling really good about this race,” said White House chief strategist Karl Rove, who is personally managing the remainder of Hayworth’s campaign from his Scottsdale office.”He’s going to be in a very competitive position if he spends just 90 percent of this money attacking [challenger Harry] Mitchell.” Hayworth will be joined at campaign events this week by 23 prominent Republicans, including Dick Cheney, John McCain, Bill Frist, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rudolph Giuliani, Ted Nugent, and Rupert Murdoch. In a poll released today, Mitchell leads Hayworth by six points.
