Tiberius Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Makes me think Bill was such a drag on Hillary's campaign. This issue of sexual assault is an issue that will be used against Trump if he is still president and runs again. Corey Booker did a good job getting out the vote, also 2 minutes ago, KD in CA said: Sorry Frankenberry, looks like your last excuse to hang on just flew out the window! He has to go.

HappyDays Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Oh, I see the pedophile lost the election. Good news. Another thorn in Trump's side until he is voted out in 2020 and we can get some sanity back in this country. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about the high ground. Trump's endorsement of Moore is going to hang over his head for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying that in a head to head general election, Hilary would have been dusted by pretty much any of the other options. They'd have attacked her numerous flaws, and unlike Trump, she'd have had nothing to attack them on. Hilary was a horrible candidate. She had so many flaws and negative talking points it's unbelievable the Dems went so out of their way to rig things so that she got in ahead of Bernie (who I think would have destroyed any Republican candidate). 2 minutes ago, HappyDays said: No doubt. I blame the Democrats for Trump more than anyone in America. As do I. Their insistence that Hilary had to be the candidate was mind boggling. They let Bernie wipe the floor with her in the debates for months, only to push her to the forefront in the middle of a major investigation. Such horrible decision making. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could. Hard to imagine Trump changing his ways though. Also, I imagine the Breitbart guys are going to be even more aggressive in the future having to recover from the blame they're inevitably going to get for pushing Roy Moore in this election. If they'd not got involved with pushing their "movement" and just allowed the Republicans run Luther Strange, I'd have gone to bed an hour ago...

From what I've read, Mo Brooks would have been the perfect candidate in Alabama if you buy into Trump's "draining the swamp" rhetoric. I think Brooks will run for and win the 2020 Senate seat that Jones just took. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump FollowFollow @realDonaldTrump More Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time.

Azalin Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I don't think there's much doubt that the better man won, but can Jones hold the seat beyond 2020 in such a conservative state without essentially toeing the republican party - or at least the conservative - line?

Well, one of the reasons. http://www.weeklystandard.com/in-alabama-jeff-sessions-desegregated-schools-and-got-the-death-penalty-for-kkk-murderer-updated/article/2005461 Sessions's actual track record certainly doesn't suggest he's a racist. Quite the opposite, in fact. As a U.S. Attorney he filed several cases to desegregate schools in Alabama. And he also prosecuted Klansman Henry Francis Hays, son of Alabama Klan leader Bennie Hays, for abducting and killing Michael Donald, a black teenager selected at random. Sessions insisted on the death penalty for Hays. When he was later elected the state Attorney General, Sessions followed through and made sure Hays was executed. The successful prosecution of Hays also led to a $7 million civil judgment against the Klan, effectively breaking the back of the KKK in Alabama.

Session is not a racist because he prosecuted a murderer who happened to be a racist...? So if he WAS a racist...he he would have let that guy go? Sounds legit to me...
