On Mondays broadcast of the Fox News Channels Your World, Senate Republican Conference Chair Senator John Thune (R-SD) argued it would be best if Alabama Republican Senate nominee Judge Roy Moore stepped aside. Thune said, [I]f and when he gets here, theres going to be this cloud, I think theres going to be an ethics investigation. I think thats probably inevitable, and that it would everybody would be better served if he would step aside and allow somebody else to run, even as a write-in candidate, I think we win that seat with a Republican. But the president sounds like hes sort of stepping up his activities in that race. Thats his prerogative. But I still think its in everybodys best interest, including the party, the Senate, and the country if we could eliminate the distraction that ultimately is going to come with this election.

Pretty much ANYONE who has power as a Republican is on the other side.
I couldn’t do it, but I had a bit of inside knowledge about him..he’s a RIno panderer who puts his own constituents last consistently.
Take Hatch off your list, he’s way, way better than Romney.
I seem to recall Thune being pretty straight up and normal. What the heck is he doing here, and why did he feel it necessary to interject himself into an election thousands of miles away?
How would Alabama be better served if they voted for Moore. They would not, it is only the Senate snobs who don’t want Moore.
We had to vote for thune when he ran against Tommy the little commie.
I dont regret that vote, just the one after that
I wouldn’t be better served and I’m part of “everyone” Thune you half a fag.
No, he is on board the Cheap Labor Express and wholeheartedly supports the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).
Take a LONG hike Thune.
Hatch may be better than Romney, but he stays on the list until he apologizes for voting for Rubio’s amnesty and promises never to do it again.
Tell you what buddy, you would serve all of us better if you resigned. Get it?
I seriously never thought Thune would become a swamp denizen.
Can the people of Alabama weigh in first please? The swamp wants to pick it’s own swamp creatures - this swamp club has to be dismantled. The best thing Mr. Thune can do is STFU.
they LOVED the old piece of shit
Thune is just another linguini spined upper midwest, probably Scandinavian bleeding heart lib. Nice, kindly, shirt off their back folks. But borderline pacifists. Go along to get along. Can’t have a steel spined, unbending constitutionalist making waves in the Senate, now can we?
SD people probably won’t be able to figure it out.
Everyone would be better served if 95% of congress stepped aside.
When Moore gets to the Senate, if he gets investigated, every man Jack in the Senate gets the exact same investigation, from McConnell on down, and the results published.
Texas has the right idea. Keep ‘em out of session and unpaid for most of the time.
You have to realize, the ruling elite's "election mechanism" has been so dominant and effective up until Trump that many IN that elite consider it "foolproof" (We The People, being the "fools" in question").
So it only makes sense for them to continue trying to use it; like a soldier shooting at a body armor clad enemy. What else has he got? They know how effective it's been in the past so like that soldier hoping to get "lucky" with a particular shot, they just keep shooting, only in a more "focused" fashion.
