What would happen if Roy Moore loses?

Simply, Moore would go on the far-right "Christian" speaking circuit, from churches to radio talk shows whining about how "godless" the country is.

The "conservative" pundits would be yelling about "the system being rigged."

And Moore himself would continue to make a lot of money pandering to racists, theocrats, and the kooks.

Who cares if he runs around getting accolades from Fox and far-right wingers. He'll have no real power to destroy anybody's lives like he would as a US Senator.
