Franken is one of the 100 “Lords” of the Senate. The most exclusive and powerful club in America. There isn’t an independent thinker in the entire GOP caucus - Cruz and Paul included. Some will fuss a bit on issues, but they are all part of the club and will continue to apply separate rules to their colleagues to the Senate, and separate rules for anyone trying to join the club without their approval.

Moore wan’t the first to be given the shiv by the GOPe (remember McMahon, Miller, Akins, etc.). Dems back their people even if they are weak. A candidate that doesn’t have the GOPe gets starved of funds and actively undermined.

also consistent with the recent Emerson College poll (Moore: 53-47 Moore) as well:

so THREE recent polls have almost exactly the same results. that’s really good news indeed ...

I read that Bannon triggered it.

If Bannon triggered anything, it's all the other "RATs In The News" scandals, and not this one.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

rcp average of 2.0 makes no sense when 3 of the latest 4 polls have him 5 or higher ...

“I wonder too, if all the sex harrassment in the news has taken attention away from the planned smear campaign.”

i would think there is no doubt about that. ALL the other ones in the news have been accompanied with actual proof in terms of pictures and or documents with the culprits admitting they did it, whereas no proof or obviously faked proof regarding Roy’s accusers as well as many witnesses refuting the accusers.

I’m thinking many voters in Alabama are figuring out the difference ...

If I were able to vote in this upcoming special election, I would vote for Moore to help him win...simply for the pleasure off seeing McConnell have to backtrack and make a fool of himself.

It goes back further than that, with decreasing significance as poll becomes more outdated, and weights the results based on polls past reliability.

It’s the Trendex graph that tells the whole (wonderful) story.

yeah, and no easy money to be made on betting on Roy to win on predicit.com where the odds are 3-1 that he’ll win (unlike the stupid odds against Trump winning where I cleared some BIG BUCKS).

Good points. The good people of Alabama are seeing all this, and concluding that this was a desperate smear campaign against their guy.

The media in the New York/Washington axis, some of whom have admitted they just don’t understand “middle America”, “flyover country”, or “evangelicals”, or “people of faith”, are similarly flummoxed about what happened on the way to knocking Moore out of the race with a trumped up smear.

Judge Moore is also riding a rocket in the RCP averages and graph. His Trendex is also way up.

Woo-hoo! Breitbart forced the smearers' hand and their smear peaked too early. (I wonder if they have a plan B.)

Exactly, a premature ejaculation... and now they have no arrows left in their quiver, nor bullets in their gun!

Never wound the King!

“are similarly flummoxed about what happened on the way to knocking Moore out of the race with a trumped up smear.”

i assume the flummoxing you’re referring to is the giant boomerang that’s mowing down whole swaths of uber-leftist politicians and “entertainers” whereas the boomerang simply bounced off of Roy Moore before making its return flight of total destruction ...

They aimed at Judge Moore and shot Al Franken. Does it get any sweeter?

As opposed to aiming at Bill Clinton and shooting Bob Livingston.

Indeed.

Contrast the Bush drunk-driving thing back in 2000.

Judge Moore Ping!

Want on or off this ping list? Just drop me a FReep mail.

Nice roundup of the accusers and Judge Moore's responses.

Follow Judge Moore on Twitter.
