Two GOP senators say Roy Moore shouldn’t run for office

Two GOP senators said Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore should not be a member of Congress amid allegations that he sexually harassed teenage girls when he was in his 30s.

“The allegations are stronger than the denial, and Roy Moore should find something else to do. I think that there’s a strong possibility with a new Republican candidate, a proven conservative, that we can win that race in Alabama,” Sen. Tim Scott, a Republican from South Carolina, said on “Fox News Sunday Morning.”

Sen. Susan Collins of Maine said she finds the sexual misconduct claims against Moore “credible.”

“I read his explanation. I listened to his radio interview. I did not find his denials to be convincing at all,” Collins said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “So, from my perspective, there are credible allegations against him.”

She said Moore should not serve in the Senate.

“I hope he does not end up in the US Senate,” Collins said.

I sure wish Herman Cain would weigh in on what he went through.

Totally agree. They are hypocrites for acting like Congress is filled with upstanding citizens.

Did Susan and Tim also demand Frankenstein and Bobby Mendenez resign immediately from Congress. Oh did they say anything about release the names behind the $15,000,000 plus pay outs for sexual harassment in Congress over the past ten years? I heard crickets!

Waiting for McCain to give his opinion before I decide. Did he deliver the yearbook?

Those rumors about Susan Collins’ former career as a porn star are ridiculous. However, due to the seriousness of the allegations I think Collins should resign. Judge Moore does not have access to the Congress’s Office of Compliance hush money fund. The thing that will insure Moore’s victory is a condemnation by Chuck Schumer.

Being a Cheap Labor Express stooge is a requirement for elected office in SC. Look at the rest of their Congressional delegation.

Let the Alabama voters decided what they want, it is their State, they know him have seen him work, I haven’t and how many of our Government Officials that live in glass houses really know him???............................... If Teddy Kennedy, and Barney Frank, were all right for MASS., then by God, Moore is all right for Alabama. It’s Alabama’s choice.

Many of this country’s so-called leaders are beyond despicable. Guilt by allegation seems to be the latest standard for these mindless miscreants. They may very well find themselves facing damning allegations some day. In fact, I allege that those that have rushed to judgement have violated their oaths of office and should resign immediately.

It didn’t take long for Scott to get corrupted. He probably leaned that way anyway.

Collins is a known swamp creature so no surprise there. She really should find something else to do, to quote Tim Scott, she’s not right for the Senate or politics in general for any place that wants someone honorable and decent.

Not a good campaign commercial but, IF True, then Judge Moore should fit right in. Follow it with Senators past and present, their activities, divorces, finances etc....

Robert Byrd, Clansman, Ted Kennedy Adulterer, Hillary Clinton-Protecter of Adulterer, Email Scandal, Al Franken- Groper and on and on.

The Senate- The Government Pharisees of our day.

I was afraid Tim Scott would be a disappointment.

He has been. Huge disappointment. But, he has that gimmick and he knows how to use it.

The Birmingham News has been on a rampage against Judge Roy Moore for many years, especially since their alleged lesbian editor took over as the main editor for the 3 largest newspapers in the state of Alabama and Judge Moore came out against sodomite marriage.

I've met her and she is VERY butch.

Kyle Whitmire is an effete "columnist" there (though he's married) and he's written with more vitriol against Judge Moore than anyone, with the possible exception of John "I forgot I declared bankruptcy and I've got a gay brother" Archibald.

They hate Judge Moore and they have made it clear that they do.

Their jobs are also dependent on pleasing their editor. Those 3 papers are owned by Advance and they have laid off over 40% of their employees in the past few years and now only print 3 days a week.

So you have lesbians and leftists calling the shots and maybe a couple of people who are afraid to speak out in fear of losing their jobs.

But this is a hate campaign against Judge Moore of the highest order.

Sen. Tim Scott, a Republican from South Carolina... Sen. Susan Collins of Maine

I knew they were both godless, statist scum. We're going to have to have a housecleaning in Congress, or this country will not endure. We Alabamians will not stand for Democrats-in-disguise like these two telling us what to do. Go Roy Moore!
