Jones Wins in Alabama
Drudge Report ^

Posted on 12/12/2017 7:30:44 PM PST by panzerkamphwageneinz

Sadly, Mitch McConnell and the Republicans succeeded in what no Democrat could: Elect a democrat to the senate. This is why I left the Republican party.

I would LOVE to see Moore as AG but I believe he has to go through the Senate for approval!!!! What are the chances of that !!!!! This election lies at the feet of the establishment republicans they WANTED to lose!!!! However Alabama voters should have been smarter, for half of Alabama citizens to have fallen for this CRAP SANDWICH is just unbelievable!!!!!!! For Shelby to have campaigned around the state AGAINST Moore is unforgivable I hope the citizens of Alabama understands fully what this outcome means for our SCOTUS!!!!

Bannon was counting on the public in Alabama, specifically the white evangelical voters, to reject the MSM

We're not quite there yet, we're a lot closer than before, but there's still work to do.

I agree in part. Moore did a terrible job in the Hannity interview and that was the beginning of the end. He needed to come out and simply deny thw worst accusations and he didn’t. He used lawyerese, and that’s where he lost the race.

He left us defending grown men dating 16 year olds. It took 2 weeks to start straightening that out, and then it was too late. Blood was in the water.

I blame Moore as much as the GOP.

Trump was right at the outset about the more winnable candidate even though Strange was a swamp dweller.

Now about Sessions. Never put a senator in a cabinet position when you have only a 2 senator lead.

Finally, candidates need to be squeaky clean in national level elections. If they have skeletons they need not to run.

And the trajectory is and has been generally good if we look at the total numbers.

Do the people of Alabama realize that they just got us within a hairs breadth of changing the balance of power in the Senate? What a bunch of IDIOTS.

They’re so stupid. Just gave the country away. Just like that. First sign of trouble and they gave the country away.

When are you going to learn there is no difference? Trump said if Moore won the primary, the Democrat would win. And he was right. He got what he wanted.

So your analysis is that Bannon was right and Moore was a great candidate? Good thing you found the enemies.

FOR THE RECORD....

President Trump won with 1.3 million votes, and the Democrat had 720 thousand votes.

The last time Senator Jeff Session ran and won he won with 1.3 million votes and the Democrat had 760 thousand votes.

Same numbers.....

Now look at tonight’s numbers. Jones has close to that same numbers for a Democrat about 700 thousand, and Roy Moore is missing over 50% of the Republican vote!????

Now keep in mind this is Alabama’s first election with electronic voting machines. Moreover, a judge ruled today they can ERASE the voting record of the electronic votes. So there is no electronic recount. I am not joking. I linked the article below.

KNOW with 100% certainty the election was stolen by the D.C. Establishment.

Kushner turned Drudge against Bannon and ,in a way, against MAGA - The Tribe sticks together ...
I have noticed that Drudge hates Bannon .and that in turn, ultimately hurts MAGA ... Bannon needs to vet MAGA candidates better - Moore was a horrible candidate ...

You seem obsessed with Bannon. Do you work for McConnell?

He got what he predicted. He probably knew there was dirt on Moore. Might not have known what, but he seems to have had some premonition.

I’m obsessed with working out and staying in shape. I don’t even know McConnell. But thanks for your deep thoughts.

Yep. I have no respect for the lazy people of Alabama who sat at home when they should have been voting. Moore was not a perfect candidate, but now you're gonna see the progressive garbage gear up very quickly to infest Alabama with illegals, convicts, and other low IQ/low info bodies and instruct them to pull the "D" lever next election. In return, they will be innundated with welfare goodies. Thanks a lot, Alabama.

Yep. Look at how many times McConnell and Ryan have won. We need more like them for sure.

You’ve been typing Bannon over and over and over tonight for some reason. Must be part of that workout regime. I don’t get the obsession.

I’m so tired of the losers blaming Moore. If he had just quit like they wanted him to, Jones could have just run against a write-in and won by acclimation.

They smeared a good man, and now deserve nothing but establishment approved Rino’s in the future. And then they look up and see a senate full of McCain’s and Flakes.

Maybe it was because the media loves the Tide so much, they were entranced by the slander/s
