Moore's excuse was that he wouldn't debate Jones because of his stance on "gay marriage." That right there cost Moore a ton of credibility -- because he came across as a coward, and is hardly the stance a deeply religious man should be taking in those circumstances.

West Point Graduate Vietnam combat veteran. Don't think he is a coward.

He's just wired different. You may not be familiar with evangelistic religious types, but I am, and some of them have strange ideas compared to the mainstream.

I did, too. But that's called "voting in an echo chamber" -- because that sort of thing actually TURNS OFF most voters.

It turns off the middle squishy voters, and it only does so because the media system is constantly telling them that being for God and country is extremist.

I've been telling people for years our primary enemy is the media system of Democrat liars/manipulators of the news.

I hope Moore does not run again, but I am somewhat afraid that he will. I think he will feel it is the only way he can redeem himself in the eyes of the public, and I think he feels it is important that someone with his beliefs gets into the Senate.

Mo Brooks is the more palatable candidate, and let's hope things just work out that way.

“...and I think he feels it is important that someone with his beliefs gets into the Senate. ....”

Someone with that level of certainty he’s indispensable is very dispensable and not likely to win!

I don’t question Moore’s character, but I believe he is completely unsuited for a legislative position. A judicial post was a perfect role for him, and perhaps he could be a solid governor as well. An uncompromising personality has no place in a committee environment.
