Monday in an op-ed posted on his website, former Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-AR) endorsed former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore in the U.S. Senate special election GOP primary runoff set for September 26 in the Yellowhammer State.
Moore faces Sen. Luther Strange (R-AL), who was appointed earlier this year by-then Gov. Robert Bentley (R-AL). That was not something that went unnoticed by Huckabee.
I have good friends in Alabama whose support is split between Senator Luther Strange, who was strangely appointed to the post by disgraced Governor Robert Bentley who made the appointment just as he was shown the door and resigned from office), and Judge Roy Moore, who is famous for his fights to preserve the display of the 10 Commandments on state property, Huckabee wrote.

Frankly, I wasnt planning on making an endorsement in the runoff in the GOP US Senate primary race. I dont have personal relationships with either of the two candidates and neither of them supported me in either of my campaigns for President so I had no political obligation to get involved. I have good friends in Alabama whose support is split between Senator Luther Strange, who was strangely appointed to the post by disgraced Governor Robert Bentley who made the appointment just as he was shown the door and resigned from office), and Judge Roy Moore, who is famous for his fights to preserve the display of the 10 Commandments on state property.
But recent events made me realize that if the GOP establishment is horrified at the notion of Judge Moore being elected, then by all means, lets hope the wonderful people of Alabama make Judge Moore into Senator Moore!

Talking directly to Paul Ryan, McConnell, Linda Graham, McCain, GOPe/RINOs
I have seen a lot of Luther Strange ads on the local Dothan TV station.
Today I saw the first one from Moore. I thought the Moore one was better done but that doesn’t mean it is more effective. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
I like Moore and really hope he wins. Strange has a good conservative record but I want Moore to send a message to McCain et als.
We have to pray that Roy wins.
Do you wonder why that is?
Who cares about this washed up old reprobate anyway?
Roy Moore is a good candidate and he doesn’t need association with a disreputable snake oil salesman to promote his platform.
SENATE LEADER Roy Moore
I’m in MS but have made a few donations to Moore - actions always speak louder than hopes....
