Thanks. My concerns were over keeping that seat. Even if innocent, those are tough allegations to fight. When I saw the polls that way, I knew it was going to be a problem. If he was guilty and stayed in, that’s infuriating. If he was innocent, it sucks that he was the victim of a smear job, but he either had to get out there and campaign and fight or step aside. He did neither, largely disappearing and obviously not showing the fight he said he would bring to the Senate. Principle dictates sometimes you step aside to keep the seat for the sake of the party, Trump, and the Supreme Court. Strange would have won.

I don't know if he could have stepped aside and allowed Strange to be the candidate.

But clearly Moore was not up to the task of being a candidate and it cost us a Senate seat.
