With a lot of help from the GOPe who pulled support at the drop of an allegation.
Their very public willingness to back someone else if Moore would just step down pretty much polished the optic that there may be truth in the allegations, and doomed Moore's campaign. When they should have been backing Moore and looking for the truth, they bailed on him. The GOP lost that seat, because they wanted someone else in it besides Moore, and they don't have anyone but themselves to blame.
But then, with the last couple years of performance, no one accused the Country Club 'pubbies of being on Trump's team.
I understand you are angry and need to vent. But it's difficult to hear you slash and burn everyone around the candidate, but not the candidate himself.
Do you think the outcome of the election could have been different had Moore looked straight into the camera and given a full-throated, flat out denial of the charges during Hannity's interview? Even Hannity told him to try again.
Would the outcome have been different had Moore campaigned night and day to groups large and small and actually fought for the seat? Do you think he should have left the horse in the stable for his grand campaign finale?
And forget McConnell---how different would the outcome have been if Senators Mike Lee and/or Ted Cruz had pounded the streets of Alabama on Moore's behalf?
This was a deeply flawed candidate from the start; low hanging fruit for the opposition.
Let's not repeat this mistake in 2020.
