Right before he beat Luther Strange, Team McConnell were telling donors they had someone on Moore dealing regarding sex and an underage woman. And a donor told me.

White House aide Kellyanne Conway said Thursday that allegations against Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore made in the Washington Post “would be disqualifying for anyone in public office.”
“We need to listen to both sides, but at the same time, that hypothetical would be disqualifying for anyone in public office,” Conway said, in a clip aired on MSNBC.
The Post reported the stories of four women who said Moore pursued relationships with them as a grown man when they were teenagers. In one case, a 32-year-old Moore took then-14-year-old Leigh Corfman to his house, undressing her before initiating sexual contact.
“She remembers that Moore kissed her, that he took off her pants and shirt, and that he touched her through her bra and underpants. She says that he guided her hand to his underwear and that she yanked her hand back,” the Post reported.
The White House’s director of legislative affairs, Marc Short, said on CNN later Thursday that “there’s no path forward” for Moore if the Post’s reporting is accurate.
“That’s a big ‘If’ clause, Wolf, it certainly is, but yes,” he told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.
But, pressed on how Alabama voters should determine the veracity of the allegations — which the Post reported after interviews with more than 30 sources — Short had few specific ideas.
“I think that the voters of Alabama deserve to know the truth and I think the voters of Alabama will demand more information, more facts to figure this out,” he said.
Some GOP leaders have called on Moore to drop out of the race to fill Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ former Senate seat — still, other Alabama officials have dismissed the Post’s reporting and defended Moore.
You are right.
“McConnell is a Southern Baptist.
huh, I thought he was the spawn of Satan himself
Where were you at 1:15 pm on September 18th, 1979?
There are a lot of other things Moore needs to do if he actually did the things he’s accused of. Dropping out of the race is certainly one of them.
we’ll see about the goner part...i’d love nothing more than to spit in mcconnell and mccain’s face..
I think this is fake news from TPM.
I cannot find that Kellyanne Conway was on MSNBC in November of 2017.
Anyone else have any luck?
Obvious Soros Clarence Thomas, Herman Cain routine.
where? Someone just googled her quotes and cannot find this interview.
Anyone have another link or source to this???
Hey, White House: they are doing to Moore what they tried to do to Trump.
Thirty sources my rear end. If this happened, it would have been revealed ages ago...because Moore is the most hated Alabamian in America by the left.
Not buying it.
Exactly. Women lie for many many reasons. It is epidemic and difficult to emerge undamaged. Its a standard part of the divorce world package.
Where in HELL is the word “allegedly” in this BS “story”?
Yes, exactly.
Nothing was reported for 40 years, but now one month BEFORE the election in Alabama, some 52 year old thrice divorced woman makes an allegation from when she was 14, and two or three others suddenly come forward?
Does this remind anyone of the ten bimbos who surfaced in October 2016 and accused Donald Trump of alleged sexual improprieties decades ago? And how those “women” disappeared right after the election?
And the RINOs can’t wait to throw Moore under the bus without even hearing his side. Bastards!
Dropping out of the race is certainly one of them.

Lots we don’t know as the truth at this time. But if he does drop out then what is the
implications for the Dec. 12, 2017 election. Can he be replaced or does the election
go to the democrat?
Seems like we sure have a lot of these abuse allegations coming out DECADES after they allegedly occurred. Hmmmm.
Salem Witch Trials 2.0..
It goes to the Democrat.
Highly unlikely for any other outcome.
