Potentially an open Senate seat in Alabama. Shelby announcement in Jan (he is 86).

Do we know of any good conservatives to get behind?

Alabama zeroes in on Richard Shelby's future

This is the guy that deliberately f***ed Alabama and the Nation by getting on national television and urging everyone to vote against Judge Roy Moore on the basis of the massive series of lies the Democrat media spread about him.

He is a Republican backstabber that cost us a Senate seat when it would have made a great deal of difference to Trump's agenda.

I know we don’t want his chief of staff.

Maybe we need a mandatory retirement age for Senators, Representatives, Judges, and Bureaucrats?

What is it about long term Senators who think that the seat belongs to them and they get to select their replacement.

In a few years they won’t be known as a Senator, but as a dead politician.

Don’t vote for anyone who isn’t on the MAGA Train.

It’s our GOP Now.

Just a reminder that Shelby was elected as a democrat and became a Republican only after the Republicans took the Senate in ‘94.

This is Katie Britt mentioned in the article...but I have no idea where she stands philosophically.

Britt is young. I worry about her current job and her employer’s association with the Chamber of Commerce.

I’d rather he be re-elected and then step down where the governor can replace.

Mo Brooks would be a good choice.

Or Bradley Byrne, whom Jeff Sessions screwed out of his House seat when he suddenly threw his hat in when it was too late for Byrne to stand for reelection in the House (Byrne had said he would not run for the senate if Sessions was going to run) (though I’m guessing that Byrne is also in line to succeed Gov. Meemaw....

Richard Shelby is a weak reed - always breaking when you lean on him. He needs to go yesterday.
