Use your electrical experience and just wire a AC single throw light switch in between your cable going from the outlet and the unit.
Hell if you want to be special you could wire a 2 3way switches in there and turn it on and off from 2 locations!
I can also just use the switch on the A/C unit to turn it off. No wiring necessary.

The main on/off switch still works fine...it's just the thermostat switch (variable resistor) that crapped out.
/e Best of all for me at least is that the thermostat died in the ON position, so all I need do is turn the A/C unit on and I have max cool.
