AGREED!

HOWEVER, it would also be foolish for any conservative to say this election was not sabotaged, or to back down to the coming fight with the RINO-UNI-Party!

There are many factors in this Alabama loss however!

At the end of the day, *Trump had twice as many votes as Roy Moore.

From this FACT, we can also conclude “so called” RNC/Conservative Alabama voters decided it was OKAY if a pro-abortion, pro-lgbt, anti-American, global socialist, Trump impeaching, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, and ultimately anti-God candidate be elected!

Either half of the Alabama voters were LAZY, or half of the Alabama voters were Complicit!

What God fearing conservative can come FACE TO FACE with THE EXACT EVIL which desires to corrupt and destroy his children and wife, which seeks to subjugate he and his family, simply give the hand of his wife, little girl, or little boy over to the same EVIL ENEMY which wants their soul!!

This person or VOTER CANNOT CLAIM HE LOVES GOD, LIBERTY, OR HIS COUNTRY!

AND HE CANNOT CLAIM HE LOVES AMERICA!

SHAME ON THOSE WHO CHOSE NOT TO FIGHT AGAISNT EVIL, WHO CHOSE TO PLACE EVIL OVER THEIR LAND FOR ANY REASON!

The GOP signed their own death warrant. Unsubstantiated accusations work. Now none of them are safe.

I’m female and I’m beginning to agree with you.

Well-to -do suburban women voted in large numbers for Jones. Literal “pearl clutchers”.

The vermin who were bused in should also be investigated.

“God bless Alabama.”

I honestly don’t know how you can say those words.

You’re being more generous than I am right now. And, I’m a native Alabamian who is incredibly angry and disillusioned.

I never thought that I would say this but I absolutely hate my state right now. So embarrassed and ashamed of our gullible, lazy voters.

Your ignorance is showing.

Luther Strange would have been slaughtered tonight. He was GOPe to the core. He also acquired his Senate seat by making a deal to not prosecute the disgraced then-Governor Bentley.

He was also involved in some scam in Birmingham that I’m not totally familiar with.

Strange=Crook.

NO. Strange would have been slaughtered. He is hated and for a good reason.

We’re not losing because Moore may have signed a yearbook 40 years ago and the Dems gave him a November surprise over it. We’re losing because we let the world get to the point where the Left has the sort of power to bring about situations like this. Conservatives have focused on ‘winning elections’ while liberals have focused on taking over all the basic institutions of society (media, education etc). The right fights through elections and outside of this is almost completely reactive. The left fights a comprehensive psychological war crossing across all facets of society.

The right is almost completely inept at intentionally creating a planned narrative. The Left can construct and promulgate narratives and powerful memes far beyond anything of the opposition and with great reliability get it into the mindspace of the public, especially the younger groups. When they get bitten by the media its almost always because something they tried backfired or went awry spontaneously.

Don’t believe me? Still gonna stay the course conservatives have been blindly following for decades? Think about it, the left has control of education, the media, half of the top of government, the vast majority of the government below the top layers and on and on. What institutions are left that we still have? Corporations? Like Google or Facebook? Churches? How’s are they doing these days?

Most insightful comment of the year. Battles may be won through strategy, but wars are won on logistics.

The alt right for whatever faults it might have is a step in the right direction. Probably the first ray of light the right has had in terms of an actual movement in years. Its dynamic, appeals to at least some younger more intellectual groups, and importantly its proactive and goes on the attack. But half of so called conservatives want to strangle it in its crib and have helped the left pigeonhole it as racist.

I feel worse than you do. Pray McConnell won't be majority leader much longer.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.

I believe I saw that Jones drew the support of half of regular churchgoers. People in AL are more liberal than many thought.
