On Arizona Illustrated, Tucson’s public television political show, RNC Committeeman Bruce Ash seems to admit as much. Starting around the 7:20 mark host Bill Buckmaster asks Ash if he sees parallels between Tuesday’s primary and the 2006 primary when hardcore righty Randy Graf took out GOP establishment darling Steve Huffman. Ash responds by stating that he personally kept the NRCC out of the 2010 Paton/Kelly race.
