Former Bush aide: GOP is 'over' if they let Moore serve in Senate
Josh Delk

Former George W. Bush administration aide Tony Fratto said Wednesday that if Republicans allow Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore to serve despite the serious sexual assault allegations against him, then the GOP is "over."

"We can scream our heads off all we want, Alabama voters will do whatever they do," Fratto tweeted. "The real test for the GOP is whether Moore is allowed to serve, should he win. Fail that test and the party's over."

    We can scream our heads off all we want, Alabama voters will do whatever they do. The real test for GOP is whether Moore is allowed to serve, should he win. Fail that test and the party’s over.

"Tony" Fratto was Deputy Assistant and Deputy Press Secretary to former United States President George W. Bush.

Is that one step above or below the janitor at the WH?

The Arizona Governor, Ducey, in a similar type of story, has said Moore should not be running.

I respect his opinion in saying this but it seems that any politician can have their political aspirations stopped by just accusing them of something as heinous as child molestation.

GD GOP has BEEN Over since before Reagan and probably another 100 years before That.

Trying to pick it up and clean it up is one heck of a dictionary definition of 'Exercise in Frustration'.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Says a Governor with senators the like of Flake and flakey McLame.
