The kids (reporters) at al.com are so confussed about this.
They know what Strange did to cover for Gov. Bentley, who they hated with a white hot passion long before he was exposed for having a mistress.
But they hate Roy More even worse because “gay” is their thing. And Roy is seen as anti-gay.
The editor of the paper is gay. The main columnist has a gay brother that all the bad anti-gay people made feel uncomfortable. The other columnist is very anti-religion and pro-gay. He HATES Roy Moore.
So it’s going to be quite a quandary for the Birmingham News and their state news arm, al.com.
They know Luther is dirty, but if they do their jobs and report it, they might accidentally get Roy Moore elected.
Oh, what webs we weave...
So my guess is that it will be a close race. Mobile, Birmingham, Montgomery, Huntsville areas will support Luther. The other more rural, religious areas will go Roy. How the middle breaks will define the race. The middle in Alabama can be an odd group. If Luther can be painted as either entitled or dirty then Roy could win. Luther will try to paint Roy as an Embarrassment to the state which might backfire. I expect the state GOP to be hostile to Roy. Hmmmm. I will have to look at this closer. Personally I like Roy’s history and his willingness to stand his ground against all to keep true to himself. Is he real or theatrical?
