No wonder he finished FOURTH in the open GOP primary in 2010, and he's such a pariah in Alabama politics even to this day.
Judging by what I have learned so far of Alabama politics, this is not an unreasonable claim.
and he's such a pariah in Alabama politics even to this day.
He became a pariah when he first stood up for the rule of law and defended Christianity. After that, all the members of the establishment judiciary wanted him out, and so did all the other "go along to get along" wimps in office in Alabama.
In his election to the Supreme Court of Alabama, the other members wrote a letter urging everyone to support the Democrat instead of Moore. (Moore won anyway) They didn't like him because he was an originalist instead of a "living constitution" advocate. They didn't like him because he didn't bend or compromise as modern politics is so often wont to do. They didn't like him because the "elites" of his state considered him embarrassing, and attracking unwanted attention from the New York Media who control the narrative in this nation.
