The guy who'd be filing the lawsuit. Moore. And his lawyers .

By the time this gets to discovery, if it gets to discovery, Moore will be a Senator.

“Everything from sexual degeneracy, infidelity, drug abuse...Nothing ever appears in print, but folks talk.”

Sadly, reality probably makes ‘House of Cards’ look like an episode of ‘Little House on the Prarie’.

He has to show they are malicious in their intent of publishing something they knew was false. It needs for him to investigate in order prove this about the stories and the paper. I understand a reporter approached a woman with the offer of a good some of money to accuse Moore.

The event is totally searchable, i.e., the initial meeting on a bench has a very precise time and date. And as a Deputy DA, he had a calendar, too.

If there was a meeting, his conversation would go to the mother...who was his age.....not the 14 year old.

In other words, there was no "Hi little girl....is this your mommy". That's why I don't believe any of this. In fact, it's ridiculous.

It’s already gobe beyond he said....she said. The girl said he called her on her phone in the bedroom. The mother said she had no phone in her bedroom at the time.

If reports are true that the WAPO reporter was offering money (caught on tape) for women to dish on Roy Moore, that would be proof enough of malice on the WAPO’s part for Moore to sue them!

He won’t show his cards until it’s too late for them or it affects his internal polling

The questions asked of Moore in depositions will be beyond nasty. WaPo will have top liberal law firms and Moore’s answers will be leaked to MSM to make him look like a pervert. I do not believe it is possible for him to successfully litigate. Moore needs an honest investigative journalist, not a lawyer.

I doubt it'll get that far. Look at what happened to Palin's defamation suit against the New York Times, and she probably had the stronger case.

I have contacted and donated to the campaign since these fake stories appeared. I hope they’ll respond.

Rather reminiscent of Herman Caine, another anti-GOP elite candidate in 2012, isn’t it? Whether McConnell and the RNC had anything at all to do with this may be in doubt, but you can bet your ass they’re happy about it. I would expect idiots like McCain, McConnell and Graham to encourage Moore to withdraw, but what’s up with Mike Lee? I haven’t heard Lee or any of the other GOP “leaders” say a word about Bob Menendez.

Good luck with that. Ask Sarah Palin.

The MSM can lie all they want about conservatives without any consequences.

AL.com is the Democrat mouthpiece and propaganda organ in my state.
I’m voting Roy Moore, no matter what.

A lawsuit might focus the minds at the WaPo toward retracting their lies.

The lawsuit only stands a chance if there is solid evidence of WAPO trying to buy false testimony - which has been rumored in at least one case to exist.

Otherwise, I believe you are correct - that this is an unfortunately necessary dance step in the political theater.

“what’s up with Mike Lee? I haven’t heard Lee or any of the other GOP “leaders” say a word about Bob Menendez”

Extremely disappointing
