MSN News ^ | 12/13/2017 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 12/13/2017 1:03:47 PM PST by detective

Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said on Wednesday that he is "relieved" GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore lost the Alabama race and won't be representing the Republican party in Congress.

"Relieved? Yes that's a good word. I'm relieved and I believe a lot of Republicans are relieved that Roy Moore and some of his people aren't the face of the Republican party," he told reporters when asked if he was feeling any relief over Tuesday's election results.

If you think you’re relieved now, Senator, just await until the voters relieve you.

Of your office.

Give ol’ Senator Shelby a call....let him know HE, along with Midge, are the reasons you won’t be supporting the GOP/NRSC, anymore....if they can’t circle the wagons in support of the nominee, then they can get their $$$ from the DNC. :(

The road to his house should be lined with signs bearing two things:

1. YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS

2. images of the aborted children whose blood will now be on his hands.

The man shouldn’t be able to even go to his own home without having that staring him in the face - the voice of the constituents he’s screwed.

I’d rather if he repented before it was too late.

When one thinks of the person (and polices he supports) who was voted in over Moore, it really makes you sit up and think when people like Shelby open up their pie-holes in glee.

Shelby just signed on to support a man that wants one million abortions per year. What’s more, the more the merrier to that crowd.

As people come out on the record, let that sink in.

And there’s plenty more to sink in.

It will be harder to get our judges approved now.

Isn’t that just grand.

Oh I’m so happy. I have to tell everyone how happy I am...

Gag me!

The challenge I had with moore was that I really wanted him to win, but I didn’t want him to be senator.

More specifically, I wanted the uniparty/msm unholy alliance to fail in their deeply financed scorched earth slime campaign more than I wanted a true loose canon to be kept from the senate.

So the good news is that moore will not be in the senate. The bad new is that the machine won. Their tactics worked.

However, come 2018 they will have more than one front to defend/attack.
