He was a terrible candidate.
There was nothing wrong with him as a Candidate for Alabama. He would have been a Terrible candidate in New York, or Portland Oregon, but in Alabama he was just fine the way he was.
The problem is a couple of kook bitches accused him of serious charges, Our party immediately acted as if those charges were proven, and then proceeded to help the Democrats stab Roy Moore in the back. Alabama's other Senator, Richard Shelby, went on the air and urged all Alabamans to not vote for Roy Moore.
And he almost pulled it off anyway.
The problem was the lying accusations and the backstabbing, not the Man.
