PRATTVILLE, Ala. — Jerome Cox, the pastor at the Greenwood Baptist Church in this small city 20 miles northwest of Montgomery, put down his banjo and smiled as he explained that he aims to always see the good in people.
That includes people like Roy Moore.
"I voted for him in the primary, in the runoff and I’ll be voting for him again on Dec. 12," Cox said.
Of more than a dozen Republican voters in Alabama interviewed by NBC News, none said their support for Moore would change.
Most said they didn't believe the allegations and some said even if they are true, that wouldn't sway their vote for him next month because they think Moore is a good man, should be forgiven and they could never bring themselves to vote for a Democrat anyway. Several attacked the media.
Across the street from Cox's congregation, rock music blared from the Big Star Tavern, where locals slammed Bud Lights, watched college football, shot pool — and defended Moore with suds-soaked passion.
"Why would they wait until now to come forward with this unless someone put them up to it," said Tony Emfinger, a 57-year-old barback at the tavern.
Emfinger, who used mostly four-letter words in referring to the allegations, has held Moore in especially high regard since 2003, when his 66-year-old aunt was handcuffed in her wheelchair and arrested after having participated in protests, led by Moore, against orders from a federal judge to remove a monument of the Ten Commandments from the lobby of the Alabama state Supreme Court.
"What he stood for then, what he stands for now, that’s why I want him" in the Senate, Emfinger said.

McConnell is not amused.
No one believes the fake legacy news media.
Looks like the Uniparty hit piece isn’t working.
Hang in there Judge Moore.
This will all pass and the
citizens of Alabama will vote

I posted this on another thread, it is more relevant to this thread...

20 years ago, I had a girl friend whose parents were from Alabama. Her mom was only 10 years older than me because she got married when she was 16! Her father was 25 when they got hitched. This is normal in Alabama, and the people of Alabama know this and will vote accordingly.
I wonder how long it took them to find a guy that played banjo
Moore has previously stated that he would not vote for Ditch as Majority Leader.
The GOPe made it so obvious as to the timing of it all. What a pathetic band. They would have likely castigated Winston Churchill for his stance against Hitler instead of wanting to appease him (’cause they might have seen a way of getting wealthy from cuddling up with Nazi Germany).
When Mitch was 30, his wife was 19.
“October Surprise” Backfire
And while we’re at it, pi$$ on Sean Hannity for his attempt to tank Judge Moore. Plus Pinhead Sean can’t seem to shut his trap long enough to listen to his guests, except that other pinhead, Whorealdo Rivera.
I met a beautiful blonde in 1990. She was 31 years old from Alabama. She had just become a grandmother for the first time.
Hang in there Judge Moore.

Yes. I bought that. The MSM likes to stick to its stereotypes. The banjo player. The good-old-boys in the pool hall.
Stand tall, folks... No time to go wobbly.
He’s a good man being smeared by incredibly despicable people.
Remember their faces and names.

The fact that Alabama voters are sticking with Roy must be making McConartist green with constipation.
