Fresh off his game-changing endorsements of Marco Rubio and then Ted Cruz, Colorado’s junior U.S. Senator Cory Gardner is putting his trademark plastic charm to work helping Arizona Sen. John McCain–who is facing the toughest challenge of his long career from Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick:

Senator Cory Gardner recognizes that we need John McCain’s experienced leadership now more than ever. #AZSen #COSenhttps://t.co/F54I3ZfDAp

We hope this ends better than “Marcomentum”–or failing that, at least there’s lots of time between now and November to forget about this, like Gardner’s ill-fated endorsement of Personhood. At some point, it’s just simple odds that Gardner is going to endorse someone who wins.

Or, maybe he gains a reputation for endorsements one should do without.
