Get real. Without the accusations of molesting a 14 year old, and trying to rape a 17 year old, nobody in Alabama gave a sh*t about whether Moore dated teenagers in the late 1970s/early 1980s.

All that crap about dating teenagers was simply intended to push the rape/molesting claim as credible, and too many Republicans helped the media spread this false equivalency.

And some still are.

No naming of sources. This entire article could be 100% BS because no sources are named. What a joke.

That’s funny...I haven’t seen him cast a single vote in the US Senate. You have to win your election to actually have a seat and vote in the Senate. Roy Moore FAILED TO WIN HIS LAST ELECTION and would be no better a candidate in 2020 than he was in the last election. HE WAS AN ATROCIOUS CANDIDATE.

Many solid conservative voters don't win their first race. (Ummm, "Reagan" anyone?) Using your logic we would have been denied some pretty incredible representatives. If Moore is the candidate, I will enjoy seeing our domestic enemies try to Kavanaugh him again. And shame on "republicans" who can't bring themselves to support him.

Why do you believe the media some of the time like about the slandering of Roy Moore but not others. You need an education.

And Luther Strange was believed to have dropped the investigation of the governor in exchange for being appointed to fill out the remaining term of Jeff Sessions.

Also, you aren't clarifying why Roy Moore was suspended from the Court. He was suspended from the court because the other coward bitch judges on the court were so afraid of Federal Judges that they refused to stand up to them as they should have done.

Roy Moore was the only one on the court with the guts to do what needed to be done, and so the other lesser judges decided to get rid of him.

Let's be clear. Moore's decisions on the law were accurate and correct, and it is the ruling of the Federal judge which was utter bullsh*t made up phoney baloney crap.

So says the media, and we should just accept the smears they make against people they don’t like.

I agree Moore is a despicable pedophile.

And how the f*** do you know that? Where did you get this information? God forbid that you are listening to the nasty vile sh*t spewed by the lying f***ing media system.

Obviously you have information that didn't come from the same source that claimed Brett Kavanaugh was part of a gangbang, nearly raped Christine Blassey Ford, and was a constant drunk?

So where did you learn about Moore being a pedophile?

He didn’t have his shot. Party leadership, which despises Deplorables, sabotaged his campaign. And they’ll do it again, rather that have a US Senator who Mitt Romney and his fellow Illuminati can’t control.

This.

Anyone who could lose to a Democrat like Doug Jones is a terrible candidate.

Anyone that doesn't know how he lost is a terrible critic.

I don’t often agree with the party elites but in this case they are right.

Seriously? They are wrong about everything else, but on this you feel confident they are right?

When you find yourself agreeing with the enemy, you should reevaluate your conclusions.

The smears against Moore are driven by the media system, and specifically by that lying bitch Stephanie McCrummen of the Washington Post, who made up that bullsh*t lying story about Rick Perry (Governor of Texas) and the N***er rock smear.

Yes, McCrummen dragged up the suicidal drug addicted slut trash from Alabama to make false accusations against Moore.

They "Kavanaughed" Moore before they did it to Kavanaugh, and so many people bought it. In fact, it worked so well against Moore, that's why they thought these same lying tactics would work against Kavanaugh. The only difference is the Republican leadership did not deliberately stab Kavanaugh in the back the way they did Moore.

He admitted to dating teenagers. I raised two daughters and there is no way I would have let a 30 something man "date" one of my daughters. The guy is a creep.

I'd even take Jeff Sessions over Moore since he'd be able to beat Jones.

I could easily see him voting against Kavanaugh's nomination because he finds under-aged drinking scandalous. Seriously.

Okay, I have to admit that is possibly a fair criticism. Yes, Moore is excessively religiously motivated, and that might have come back to bite us in the @$$.

"Leading massively?"

Did Roy Moore ever win a landslide election in his life after his first election to the Alabama Supreme Court?

Here's my understanding of his history in elections before 2017:

1. 2000 ... Wins his first term as Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court by ten points.

2. 2006 ... Ran for the GOP nomination against a sitting incumbent Republican (Bob Riley). Lost by more than 30 points, complained that the primary was rigged against him, refused to concede, and refused to endorse Riley in the general election.

3. 2010 ... Ran for the GOP nomination for the governor's open seat after Riley was re-elected in 2006. Apparently the Republicans in Alabama had seen enough of him in 2006, as he finished fourth in the primary with less than 20% of the vote.

4. Ran again for Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court in 2012. Won by less than four points.

There is nothing about his background to suggest he's a solid candidate at all. In fact, his losses in previous primaries and his narrow win in 2012 -- in a deep "red" state like Alabama -- should be seen as giant warning flags.

If the DS really had all that info on “under-age girls” he’d
ALREADY would’ve been in the Senate...and probably a candidate for the Senate Majority Leader.

If it were “under-age boys” none of us would even be talking about it. We’d all be sitting around on our thumbs wondering how this “conservative” suddenly started voting left as soon as he got to DC.

Roy Moore is true ....

I think it goes beyond that.

I honestly wonder if the guy would simply state that 99% of the Federal government is unconstitutional, and then refuse to vote on almost ANYTHING in the U.S. Senate.

He'd be factually correct, but this would be a completely counterproductive approach for an elected official to take.
