1) GOPe hates Moore with a white hot passion

2) When Moore wins, he will be nearly bullet-proof

3) I think we are watching the turdle swirl the drain in real time.

Conflicted? At this point they are scared to death of a Moore win. They took off the mask and openly used every dirty trick in the book to derail his election. He not only owes them nothing but will be highly motivated to oppose them at every turn. I’m sure he will just be waiting for the day he can return McConnell’s treachery back on him.

Maybe they will resign in protest.

No... the RINOcrats are too dishonest for that.

> it’s better longer-term for the party if he doesn’t come to the Senate.

I agree. It would be terrible if Democrats started donating to and voting for Moore. I sure hope they don’t do it!

Prayers for my Bama kindred. #RollTide.. so much for what’s his name calling Moore unelectable. I can’t think of him, the chuck n Nancy deal maker.

The GOP can shut the hell up. They got no room to talk about anything.

Two words: Ted Kennedy

Too bad Moore isn’t a young man (like the “damaged” Ted); but my guess he will be highly effective for the time he is there.

The Republican "brand?"

Do you feel branded? I don't.

Se, when GOP Inc. hatches a master plan, it never goes like they expected and it almost always fails.

“He was supposed to cower... “

Perfect. I wonder if there is a GOPe playbook - where they teach the new members how to perform this maneuver.

Now that the slim hopes of a write in or a Democrat win are rapidly diminishing, McConnell & Co. are stuck with what to do with Moore for the next two years. I still expect them to marginalize him, I expect the attacks will continue, I expect them to diminish him and make him look bad at every opportunity.

Doing so will manifest their opposition to the voice of the people of Alabama.

Never Trumpers and drive by media radio talk hosts were having a field day ignoring the fact that all of the accusers were of the age of legal consent. Including the one claiming when 14 years old. For her accusations are the juiciest.All of which Moore denied. Because they hinted at and was actually accused by a group of being a “Ped”.A result after the above being gleefully reported and dwelled on in a touchy feel-ly manner. As if it came off of a never given or made police report which requires a sworn complaint.

All the accusations originate and are quoted from a media source which supports positions like abortion, gender reclassification, gay marriage, and nullification of religious influence on culture. All of which are solidlly opposed by candidate Roy Moore.

Despite that fact and that it has been uncovered that his accusers are working for the Perversion Party and that their accusations are false and politically motivated. The drivebys and the nevers media are not reporting this. but are mentioning one accuser is a “Republican” then when examined turns out to be questionable

Worse yet even though these accusations have been solidly refuted. The general public relying on certain venues including talk show hosts are not being told what’s been uncovered. .

Here is background on 4 accusers. One works for the perverts that one knows the one who claimed she was 14. But was actually 17 at the time ? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3603606/posts
Latest charge : Grad book signature a forgery; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3604591/posts
someone named Roy or Ray signed it Moore’s last name was added to it. His legal secretary at the time he was a Circuit Court Judge declared it a forgery because her initials; DA, appear with his signature in that year book. Because she would do so to verify his signature only on his court rulings.

They are still conflicted that Trump is President - for the same reasons they are conflicted over Moore - they both have very conservative views and fight back....

Exactly. The GOPe definition of better for the party long term is that they are in the minority and get to complain without actually having to do anything. But that’s not good for us or the country.

Love your links. Then I read that CNN touched up the photo to make all the ink look black. Who puts dates in your yearbook signature? No one. That D.A. thingy is so funny it’s laughable.

Don’t be a TURKEY, everyone...... please donate monthly, even if it’s just $10 / month.

What would we DO without FReeper page? Worth it for no popups or advertising. Jim needs our help.

Let’s wrap it up, folks! THANKS and have a GREAT Thanksgiving.
unpaid message straight from the heart. :)
