Leftover Discussion Thread: AL Special Election

[Right_in_Virginia]

Well, I'm sure the Republicans will rally from this defeat and come back strong in 2018   

[mystery-ak]

I guess the people prefer abortion over pedophilia......./s

[TomSea]

   Solid RED seat and Mitch and Trump threw it all away. #MAGA

Yeah, so non-Republicans say who supposedly back a Republican guy who withdrew his endorsement of Judge Roy Moore, well, we can all make a meal out of it, we told 'em so.

F the Republicans.

[Right_in_Virginia]

At this point I'm not sure how Moore can win. There's too many Dem county precincts out.

You're right @Free Vulcan  Moore's done.  It's Senator Jones.

[mystery-ak]

Can't help but feel the voters got the candidate they deserved.

But I don't think they'll learn.

agreed

[Cyber Liberty]

Ok Sessions we lost this seat because you wanted to be AG... You'd better start delivering.

That'll happen.  No, Sessions will use this as an excuse to be even MORE timid. 

[InHeavenThereIsNoBeer]

   BS, @Right_in_Virginia Strange was Mitch's pick and after their big fight (Trump and Mitch) Trump came out for Strange when Mo still had a chance, this sex crap on Moore wasn't even on the Radar then.
   Your guy backed a failure from the get go in this CF, Mo was the only Conservative, without baggage, that was running but alas he was a Conservative and Mitch AND Trump didn't need another one on those in the Senate.    Flame on Lady.

What are you talking about?  We won't know who trump backed until the final count is in.

[Right_in_Virginia]

F the Republicans.

Okay. 

[mystery-ak]

Did a good job Bannon....NOT!

[DiogenesLamp]

No  the bone headed move was not doing something about Moore.  Either aggressively defend him or get him to step aside but allowing this to limp along with faint support was stupid.  The only plus side this evening is watching TOS turn on itself

Too many people on "our"  side stabbed him in the back,  Mitch McConnell among them.    We always attack our own candidates and a good portion of us  believe whatever crap the liberal media says about them.

McConnell hates responsibility he wants to be in the Minority.

Sure   You keep believing that.   If they don’t pass tax reform and significant reform at that they have no chance.  Even with tax reform they are in trouble.  I have been voting republican since 1980 and this may be the first election I sit out.  A pox on all their houses

[jmyrlefuller]

Well, you can expect every Republican candidate for federal office to be accused of being a pedophile now that the Democrats know it's a winning strategy and everyone will buy it.

[Frank Cannon]

Guess riding around on a horse isn't the winning strategy it was........back in 1877.

[DiogenesLamp]

What does Bannon have to do with people spreading accusations against our candidate? 

[mystery-ak]

McConnell hates responsibility he wants to be in the Minority.

He may get his wish....better not lose the House or we will be covering impeachment proceedings in 2019

I think a lot of good people stayed home in disgust.   A trend I expect to gain momentum

[RoosGirl]

My prayers answered; we can all stop arguing about the Roy Moore sex assault BS and go back to arguing about Trump being a doofus.  Hooray.

[Cyber Liberty]

So!  Now that that's over...who wants to start a pool on what happens to these molesting charges against Moore?

[Right_in_Virginia]

Did a good job Bannon....NOT!

Let's not blame those who supported Moore and did all they could to pull his sorry arse out of the fire during the general.

But we can blame Bannon for pushing Moore during the primaries.  I know I do.

[kevindavis007]

   Solid RED seat and Mitch and Trump threw it all away. #MAGA

Why blame Mitch? Could it be that Roy was a S**t candidate...

[mystery-ak]

apparently people believed those accusations including Trump's daughter

[Right_in_Virginia]

So!  Now that that's over...who wants to start a pool on what happens to these molesting charges against Moore?

I'll start.  It will turn out the women were molested by Trump. 

[Hoodat]

AP just called it for Jones.
