Bears remembering. Choices have consequences and Senate votes are precious things as we now know.
If you ask me, this election was sealed with the choice of Jeff Sessions to be attorney general.

Nope. Given the small margin of the loss, it was sealed when the GOPe chose to actively campaign against Moore. Senator Shelby’s Anti-Moore media blitz last weekend was pathetic. Jones used it to do a state wide robo call on election eve. Moore would have won confortbaly had the GOPe simply kept their mouths shut and arranged to run negative ads against Jones.
Let's see. Who appointed Sessions? Luther Strange? Nope. Mitch McConnell? Nope. Paul Ryan? Nope.
Then who is responsible for sealing the election for a democrat with the choice of Sessions to be attorney general? Oh yeah. The Donald. Using Limbaugh logic, the blame falls on Trump for last nights defeat for selecting Sessions as Att'y General.
Well that’s just BS. Alabama is (was) among the reddest of red states, anyone - and I mean even Steve Wonder - would have said that a Republican replacement for Sessions was a given.
What we got is another lousy candidate, a strictly conservative ideologue with virtually no personality who conservatives love and no one else can stand (think “Ted Cruz”). We know how that movie ends, just look at the vast number of disappointments from the “tea party surge” who have done nothing except mostly, leave.
Big Luther would have kept the seat, as Trump knew. But you get what you got because of a lousy candidate who creeped everyone out and couldn’t even be bothered to campaign the final weekend, not because of Jeff Sessions.
