It's not like they were all Rockefellers or DC swamp creatures. They were people who lived in Alabama, who just couldn't take Roy Moore. They might be your friends or relatives or neighbors if you lived in the state, not millionaires and lobbyists and DC hacks.
So, you want us to believe they are conservative morons that would rather have liberal Democrat in office than Moore? Sorry, I don't buy it.
Sitting out elections and letting liberals win is brain dead.
