Grant Woods, John McCain's former chief of staff, is considering running for Senate in Arizona as a Democrat, he told The Washington Post on Wednesday.
Woods, who also once served as Arizona's attorney general, was the late senator's chief of staff when he was a congressman. McCain died late last month of brain cancer, and Woods told the Post he looks at things differently since "the passing of John McCain. It's challenging for me to be so involved in everything that we did to honor him over the last week and then think of staying on the sidelines as we face a world without John McCain."
