Luckily for me and my fellow Alabamians, Tommy is 20 % ahead of Jeff.

Besides, we’ll vote for a blue dog over Pink Doug. Even if the dog is Jeff.

They could but only if they don’t get enough votes. So vote and encourage your family, friends, neighbors, acquaintances and everyone else to vote republican. In the end, votes win elections.

With mail in votes? Bank on it. They will lose both the house and Senate unless they stop this.....and they aren’t.

You are from Jersey?

I’m from Alabama and politically active.

Most Alabamians remember Luther cutting a deal to be Jeff’s replacement for not prosecuting ole Horn Dog Gov Bentley.

It reeks now and it reeked then.

No amount of pumping up Luther was going to work then with that back room deal so fresh in their minds.

Sadly, most Republican voters (the majority in Alabama) stayed home in Dec 2017. Roy is a kook. I don’t actually mind that but too many thought so and just stayed home. Pink Doug won with about the same amount that Hillary got here in 2016, and she was schlonged!

Tommy is a different matter. First, we all know about what a disaster our dear ole Jeff was as AG. Jeff WAS quite popular, not so now. Tommy is popular, people down here LOVE college football, and last poll had Tommy up 20%.

...and they aren’t.

Who's they?

McConnell is not going to field Nanzi's bill, and Pres. Trump will veto it if so.

Neither of them are going to slice their own throats. Mitch loves his Senate royalty gig and digs. The Donald is and always will be a fighter.

You say they aren't fighting this, but they don't have to. Mail-in balloting, vote harvesting, etc, all all state-by-state initiatives. Most of the blue states ALREADY have them.

Nanzi's effort to force this on the rest of the country has to pass both Houses and the President's desk.

It won't.

Too many doom and gloomers here. Please keep a stiff upper lip!!!

I think losing the Senate or a tie are the most probable outcomes.

In October 2018 I predicted D+40 in the House, which was exactly correct.

Collins, Gardner, and Daines are gone. Tillis may pull it out.

Whether it’s 49-51 or 50-50 depends on the Doug Jones race, and I think the open hostility Trump is showing to Sessions will help Jones keep the seat.

Please don’t recycle all the insults from 2018. Most people here do not understand how hated the GOP is.

How is Tuberville polling against Jones?

And will any Sessions voters stay home in November?

Could The GOP Really Lose The Senate ? Remember when the "Establishment Republicans" decided to teach the base a lesson, and lose to the Democrats with McCain ?
Well, the conservatives never forgot that, and now we know that in order to get rid of R.I.N.O.s and "Establishment Republicans", sometimes it's better to lose and then replace the DemocRAT winner on the next election.
The "Establishment Republicans" have only themselves to blame for teaching the base that long-term strategy !

At this point, what difference does it make who controls the House or Senate? I know that it does matter, but not very much. Beginning in January of 2017 R’s controlled all three and would not even tell the truth to the public about the Russian Hoax, Flynn or spying on our President. The ONLY thing lower in my mind than a Republican politician, is all Democrat politicians, but they are awfully close in relation to the bottom of that proverbial barrel.

Let’s not pretend that it doesn’t matter who controls the legislature, I’ll just name two reasons among hundreds-— Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.

Republicans are two to one over democrats in Alabama. Pink Doug won by suppressing the GOP vote and encouraging all the dems to come out by accusing Moore of being a racist and a womanizer (of young girls).

Trump is on the ballot in November. EVERY Republican is enthused to reelect him. Even if every democrat also comes out, the Republican are twice as big a crowd. Moreover, Biden’s slam on “Charlemagne tha God” (you ain’t black!) just KILLED any hope of resurgent black dem voting.

The Republican voters are NOT going to vote for Pink Doug! They’ll vote for whoever is the Republican. I’m pretty sure that’s Tommy. Jeff voters are not and never have been fanatic. After the run off, and Tommy wins, they’ll all get behind Tommy.

The one thing to be on the lookout for? The media will get some former Auburn cheerleaders to say Tommy groped or abused them.

I taught at Auburn University for 20 years. Tommy was a priest—no reputation whatsoever of skirt chasing. A real family man. It would be far easier to find someone accusing me of googling the pretty young thangs than Tommy. Yes, I’ll admit I did look.

Trump may not get on the ballot.
The governor of North Carolina or the mayor of the City of Charlotte, both Democrats, may cancel the Republican National Convention,
leaving the party with no nominee.

The interference may come sufficiently late that the convention cannot regroup in some welcoming state in time to meet the ballot timetables in all necessary states.


curses! foiled again...
