Establishment Republicans Cheer Roy Moore’s Loss in Alabama
Breitbart ^ | 12/12/17 | Sean Moran

Posted on 12/13/2017 4:26:31 AM PST by x1stcav

Several establishment Republicans cheered as the Alabama Senate Republican candidate Judge Roy Moore lost to his Democratic opponent Doug Jones.

Here are some of the establishment Republicans who praised Roy Moore’s loss in the Alabama Senate race on Tuesday:

National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Chairman Cory Gardner (R-CO) said in a statement, “Tonight’s results are clear – the people of Alabama deemed Roy Moore unfit to serve in the U.S. Senate. I hope Senator-elect Doug Jones will do the right thing and truly represent Alabama by choosing to vote with the Senate Republican Majority.”

Both major parties wanted him gone and he lost by a very little.

Given both major parties are the ones counting the votes, and given they found a ton of pre-printed votes for Jones not a few days before, I’m more willing to believe both parties worked to ensure he lost, even if he had more votes last night.

Exactly. The Democrats have WAY MORE loyalty to their party than these Republicans that are perfectly happy watching the country burn to the ground from their lofty perches on the moral high ground.

So the ignorance of the voters played a HUGE part too.

Reading is fundamental.

NOW that dems know FAKE charges can bring someone down, they will bring DOZENS of women out against Trump.

And with the majority of R’s being RINOs, they will gladly join in the chorus for Trump to step down.

Ditto to that, girly man Gardener is going to lose to a demonrat because alot of us are wise to his rinoism. Sorry to say but I will vote for the demonrat.

To hell with all rinos!

Query: McTurtle said, if Moore wins, he won't swear him in until after the first of the year. Will the same be done with Jones?

My cynical answer: NO! McTurtle got what he wanted!

Agree. Who believes the narrative will not be repeated for whoever runs on the Republican ticket in the future. Just too convenient that 40 year old allegations that can’t be refuted comes out that close to an election. Could the Dems be involved??? Or did this come from the “never Trumpers like Mc turdle?

My first vote was ‘68 and I’ve never voted for a demonrat.

That might change.
