J.D. Hayworth Election Night Fiesta Turns to I-Hate-John-McCain-Apalooza as J.D. Concedes
The article is kinda long so I'll try to squeeze the best 4 paragraphs.

A little after 9 p.m., the mug of the man Hayworth supporters loath, McCain, was being broadcast on two large screens at either end of the room.

<snip>

"No way!" a woman shrieked before a "rhino" chant -- followed promptly by a "liar" chant -- took shape. The woman next to us called McCain a "loser," a "mafioso," and a "disgrace," all in one breath.

<snip>

An older woman noticed our camera and asked what news outlet we were with. We told her New Times and were instantly taught an impromptu lesson in journalism 101.

"You guys hate Joe Arpaio," she scolded. She went on to chastise us over how we covered the race and told us even though Hayworth lost she wouldn't be voting for McCain in the general election.

(continues on explaining that everyone they asked at the Hayworth rally said they wouldn't vote for McCain in the GE)
