Senate Republicans warn Roy Moore of similar fate as Al Franken: 'It probably doesn't bode well'
by Al Weaver | Dec 6, 2017, 5:58 PM

Senate Republicans are warning Judge Roy Moore that he is likely to face many of the same problems as Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., after an avalanche of Democratic senators called for his resignation on Wednesday in the wake of a new allegation of sexual misconduct that emerged earlier in the day.

Republicans believe that if Moore wins next Tuesday's Senate special election in Alabama, he will immediately be subject to an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee and could be subject to expulsion if the committee turns up credible evidence that he initiated unwanted sexual encounters with girls as young as 14 during his 30s. This comes despite President Trump's endorsement of Moore earlier in the week and the Republican National Committee's decision to jump back into the race after pulling resources from Alabama weeks ago.

They're not afraid of anything. They are now playing a game where they think they can scare voters into not voting for Moore and give McConnell what he desperately wants.......loss of control of the Senate.

They don't have a lot of arrows left in the quiver it seems to me.

Still waiting for pictures.. or some actual proof.

I do note the weasel words from the Senates top weasel.... if the committee turns up credible evidence that he initiated unwanted sexual encounters. Seems it was wanted.... and not even sexual. Well.. a kiss , but is affection sexual.

I mean, I hug my Aunts and Nieces.  :pondering:

This is just Kabuki..... trying to save face when Americans elect The Judge.

Go ahead Alabama, vote for Moore and dare them to do it. Like everything else the GOPe in DC says are idle threats. If they do try it will be a war.
