I'm not being so quick to blame Bannon.

We need someone to back insurgents to challenge incumbents, and without a quarterback like Bannon to coordinate a national effort, it will be a haphazard disjointed movement at best.

Remember that Democrats have to defend 23 seats in 2018, and Jones has to run again in 2020. Republicans should grow their lead next year. After two years of Doug Jones, Alabama may sour on his liberal votes.

The problem is that without carpetbagging, Bannon will have to go with the best that each state has to offer. The hope is that someone like Bannon can attract people to step up and not run away from the cause because of McConnell's scorched earth fragging of his own side.

No chance the GOP will grow their lead. The Democrats will simply take the strategy used by McConnell to defeat Moore, and use it against them. They better be prepared, because women they never heard of are about the dragged into the limelight claiming sexual assault.
