Yeah, Jones had that used-car smell to him right out of the box. You have to hand it to the Dims, they came in at exactly the right moment and, rightly or wrongly, tarred and feathered Moore at a critical moment and put Jones in as the ‘Who Else Can You Vote For?’ candidate. It was the perfect setup, and I was one of many who had to agonize over whether we were going to do the right thing by voting for a guy who seemed to have the credentials, but might be a crazy old perv under the surface. Jones came in as Mr. Everyman presenting himself as a ‘centrist’. Who knows? Moore may well have been someone who had a Good Ol’ Boy network around him that kept him out of the local papers. That sort of thing happens all the time, even in 2018. But Moore may well have had his quirks and whatnot dragged through the mud for no other reason than to position Jones for the win. Not for legal reasons, but because Moore was just a native Alabaman acting like an Alabaman. Someone riding his horse to the polling booth isn’t going to look normal to most of the rest of America. Still, notice how all of the furor and smoke over these ‘sexual misconduct’ allegations blew away with the wind as soon as Jones was sworn in? Things that make you go ‘Hmmmmmm........’
The RINO Establishment wanted Jones. They got him. Chief Justice Moore was too much a threat to the corrupt Derp State.
