Probably several reasons. Here are two:
1. only 50% of the Republicans who voted in 2016 turned out to vote yesterday. Whereas, 92% of the Democrats who voted in 2016 turned out to vote yesterday.
Republican turn out the vote campaign failed miserably.
2. There is no way Republicans can without party unity. Conservatives plus establishment equal a win. Definitely missing for this election.
2. Bannan may be a master politician but not in Alabama. His style is not for the South. He turns people off down here. He gained no votes and more than likely cost Moore some votes.
I am not buying it fore one second.
92% of HilLIARy voters turned out?
OR did they do their voting for them...?
I wonder what percent of Democrats would stay home if a Democrat was accused of what Moore was.
“There is no way Republicans can without party unity. Conservatives plus establishment equal a win. Definitely missing for this election.”
Not just for this election. That unity is ALWAYS missing when it is a conservative candidate, instead of an establishment candidate. They expect us to vote for their guy when it’s their turn, but they never support our guy when it’s our turn.
Not his style? Bannon is exactly what the South appreciates.
To your point #1 - I find those numbers odd. This election wasn’t just about Moore, everyone understood the larger implications. I also have a steadfast belief that the Dems have a well greased system for getting away with fraud. Dead people, or those no longer living in the state, have a peculiar tendency to vote Dem. I’d love to have an audit of mail-in ballots, just for once - that it’s ALWAYS Dems that stand in the way is very telling.
Considering how “close” this was, any fraud at all could determine the future of this country.
Well said

Didn’t do so well in Wisconsin either, when he made a big push for Nehlen against Paul Ryan.
