What would possess anyone in their right mind to vote for someone with the baggage Chris Simcox has?
If you were to take the biography that Chris Simcox has on his Senatorial campaign site, one would think Chris Simcox is the answer to everything. The problem is the biography on the Simcox site is full of hyperbole and a tremendous amount of selective amnesia.…

27 - the TRUTH
Wow, of everything I've been reading I rarely find something filled with so much hate and void of so much fact. Nearly all of your assertions are "he-said-she-said". I've read the comments and understand that you don't like people making "patronizing remarks" about your research...you seem to take your research seriously, but if that's the case, WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT RIGHT?? So many of your "facts" are so far off-base, i.e.,
1) Simcox cashed in son's college fund to but newspaper (DID NOT HAPPEN)
2) regarding the allegations of Deborah Crews-it can easily be found in court documents as well that Crews has in several occasions gone to dire lengths to ensure custody of their daughter, including claiming Simcox was not the father for YEARS during an ongoing court battle. It was eventually proved that he WAS the father, however Crews never stopped trying to regain custody at any cost (see ALLEGATIONS).
3) Simcox only uses the fact that he was married to and had a child with an African American to cover up the fact that he is a racist-well that's exactly why he does this, because so many people base-lessly throw around the "R" word simply because his passion for border security embodies itself in a primarily Anglo vs. Latino way. This is a coincidence. If China were our Southern neighbors you all would accuse Simcox of being anti-Chinese....
4) Dunbar, Simcox's ex-wife, "does not allow Simcox to be anywhere near their son". Well, actually, smart guy, Simcox and his son were just together last week, you can look at the videos of his campaign announcement on youtube for proof, and the only time the two have EVER not been allowed to see each other was during a extremely brief period immediately following 9/11 when Simcox was yes, a little freaked out, as if you weren't...
5) Simcox's brother started running the Tumbleweed after he started "gallivanting around the country preaching closed borders and running around looking rather strange in his Kevlar vest." Ummm, not that this even matters that much, but his brother never had anything to do with any of this, and lives no where near Arizona at all, another baseless lie on your part....
6) Simcox was a failed actor??????? WHAAAAT????? what you have to say gets more and more hilarious by the second......
Maybe you, yes you the author of this absurd article, and all the readers out there should think of it like this....
Yes, Chris is a real person, No, he is not some phony politician who stands on a pedestal with a "holier-than-thou" attitude is if they have always lead immaculate lives. Chris has made mistakes, and he will in the future, just like EVERYONE ON THIS PLANET. The difference between him and the "holier-than-thou's" is that he actually stands for something. He is not just some wishy washy guy who is in it for money, popularity, to be a career politician, to play the game of American politics....
No, he is a person that instead of sitting on his hands during one of the most important and trying times in our history, he decided to do what our country is supposedly based on-GET OFF YOUR BUTT, OUT FROM IN FRONT OF THE DAMN TELEVISION, AND DO SOMETHING!!!!
So many examples throughout our nation's history to choose from, how about the separation from England?? Our nations very beginning??? If nobody had the guts and courage to make the tough decisions, and right or wrong, DO SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT THEY DID NOT AGREE WITH, we would not be in existence today.
So go ahead, call him a racist, call him what you will, but as his oldest son, that he is ACCORDING TO YOU never allowed to see (who is spewing the hyperbole now?) I will stand tall, and call him A TRUE AMERICAN.
It is sad that on a website where one of the conditions of leaving a comment is that no personal attacks can be made, so much hate and personal attack is spewed by the author of its' articles!!!!!! You claim to have devoted your life to researching all this, and you are soooo boo-hoo sensitive when people call you out on your idiotic claims, however, at the end of the day the truth is you haven't done a very good job!!!
oh and p.s., while we are slinging mud (thanks for giving me the idea!), before you EVER EVER begin to think of publishing a book you really should hire an editor or contact a 3rd grade teacher, because with the amount of grammar and spelling mistakes you made in 4 pages of writing I can't imagine anyone would let you out of grade school.
tootles!
28 - the TRUTH
OH, AND THANKS TO THE COMMENTER "EL BICHO" FOR PROVIDING A GREAT LITTLE TIDBIT...
"I don't know anything about Simcox, but does/did McCain's site list his first marriage before the one to "his (extremely wealthy) wife."
ASSUMING THIS WERE A FAIRLY AND OBJECTIVELY WRITTEN ARTICLE, THE AVERAGE READER (if they had more sense than SJ Reidhead) WOULD WONDER WHY REIDHEAD DIDN'T TALK ABOUT HOW MCCAIN (AND SURELY MANY MANY OTHER POLITICIANS) HAVE THE EXACT SAME PERSONAL SITUATION AS SIMCOX (regarding marriage, etc.), AS IF IT WERE ANY OF YOUR GODDAMN BUSINESS ANYWAY!!!
YET YOU CLAIM YOU ARE JUST ABOUT THE FACTS, AND YOUR DILIGENT RESEARCH...
MAN, IF ONLY WE LIVED IN A WORLD WHERE A MAN WAS JUDGED SOLELY BY WHAT HIS EX-WIFE SAID ABOUT HIM.......
