The righties will come out in force just to stick a finger in the eye of decent people.

Even their own daughters are, at least for some, not too high a price to pay for that.


I dont know if you heard the reporting on that yet, but one of the teenage victims asked her mother back then :
Mon, what would you say if I told you roy Moore wanted to ask me out for a date ?

To which the mother replied :

I would say you are the luckiest girl in the world.

She now regrets not having protected her daughter..

If he doesn't, I'll be the first to dance in the streets. I'm encouraging everyone I know to vote. Most Dems see Moore as vulnerable and know this is a great moment to try and turn things around. However, I just don't think we have the raw numbers... not unless conservatives Christians are so disgusted by his behavior that they stay home in droves. The Trump tapes didn't have that affect. I'm not hopeful.

It's so screwed up in Alabama. It's hard to understand unless you've grown up here, or at least lived here.

Doug Jones released an ad that touted his chops as a Civil Rights supporter, most likely to energize the African American community. They were pretty good chops and the AA vote is 30% of the electorate. It made sense. It would not be a bad ad in any other state but Alabama.... um... unless it was Mississippi. (I would go "lol" but that old joke is way too sad in this particular context.)
