Political action is heating up as Arizona's Feb. 5 primaries near - from both ends of the spectrum.

From the right, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio will headline a rally Friday for former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

Romney is one of Sen. John McCain's chief competitors for the Republican presidential nomination.

Arpaio is the honorary chairman of Romney's Arizona campaign and will be in Tucson on Friday for a series of pro-Romney events.

He'll begin at 11:30 a.m. at the Sheraton Tucson Hotel and Suites, 5151 E. Grant Road, then at 3:30 he'll be at Broadway Proper Retirement Community, 400 S. Broadway Place. He'll finish up at a 6:30 p.m. rally at the Medicine Man Art Gallery, 7000 E. Tanque Verde Road.

U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich's supporters will hold a rally two days after the Democrat ended his campaign.

The rally will start at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Armory Senior Center Ballroom. It will feature speakers and live music. Martha Dominguez, a New Mexico activist, will address the crowd in Spanish. Entertainers include Dakota & the Black River Bandit Band.

Kucinich announced Thursday that he will leave the race for the White House.

No never spent time in tent city,but if you care to read about your "hero" "self appointed hero and tough sheriff" go to www.phoenixnewtimes.com and read the law suits of inmates who have been beated and killed and swept under the rug,some have not even been convicted. the plea bargains people take to get out of jail, when innocent. We are supporting a lot of innocent the state atty 's office refuses to ackowledge as they do not want to admit they made a mistake! they ought to put pink (what s up with THAT) on joke arpaio and andy thom ass and hand cuff them and put them on a chain gang for the Hitler brutality they have done. I pity those of you who are cheering them on as you remain ignorant to the facts!

Funny how some people can dislike a law-abiding Sheriff like Joe. Every state wishes they had a Sheriff Joe. We all want someone who has the backbone it takes to do the right thing. I'm so pleased Mitt Romney is associated with him and God Bless them both!!!

I am voting for Mitt. McCain is an open border idiot.. And Joe is doing the job the majority of the people in Arizona asked him to do.
