VIDEO : US Senate Candidate Dr Richard Carmona ( Democrat, Arizona ) Interview : Carmona is a 62-year-old former Army officer, trauma doctor, SWAT team leader and U.S. surgeon general appointed by President George W. Bush. To compete for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by retiring Republican Sen. Jon Kyl

.

Information from the Huffington Post :

Richard Carmona, who rose from a childhood of poverty and rough circumstances in New York City, has ads with footage of him rappelling from a helicopter to rescue a trauma victim, displaying his spiffy surgeon general's uniform, winning a "top cop" award and brandishing his SWAT team badge, plus testimony from fellow Vietnam combat vets.

In Arizona, for example, Carmona is stressing his background as a disabled Vietnam veteran and doctor to attack the budget-cutting Flake as a threat to Veterans Affairs hospitals and veterans' health care in general. Arizona's population is heavy with military retirees.

But the consensus estimate now is that the Democrats will emerge on election night with a 52-48 majority, not nearly enough to break the 60-vote grip of the filibuster, but enough to keep the chairmanships, command of the floor and control of other key Senate business.
