Abortion Could Be Deal-Breaker In Alabama Senate Race For Many Torn GOP Voters

[Dulcinea]

For some Alabama voters, supporting abortion rights may be a sin worse than some of the sexual misdeeds Alabama GOP Senate nominee Roy Moore has been accused of — allegations Moore has denied.

That's the conundrum facing the state's conservative, deeply religious electorate: Embrace Democrat Doug Jones despite his liberal stance on abortion and other social issues or vote for Moore anyway even if they believe there is some truth to the sexual assault allegations against him.

"The abortion issue alone is enough to buy [Moore] a win," predicted Brent Buchanan, an Alabama GOP pollster and consultant. "That's the one nonnegotiable for social conservatives. You're not as hardcore on taxes. 'I can give up on that,' some voters might think. But when you're talking about somebody else's life, that's a whole different ballgame. And I think that's the big difference."

2. When George Carlin said, "If you're preborn, you're fine..."

"...If you're preschool, you're fucked.", he thought he was speaking figuratively. Little did he know.

3. Nah...George KNEW he was being literal...that was the entire joke to him...

He knew the things he was saying were true and literal, but it amused him that the audiences believed otherwise...

4. But those voters don't like a man who prosecuted Klansmen who murdered living, actual children.

They were in church, yet, where they least expected to be blown into tiny fragments by a Klan bomb.

Moore supporters apparently think there's no reason to prosecute real people murderers.

Will they be any more decent in Alabama in 100 years, even? I doubt it.
