Alabama Republican Roy Moore has announced he is running for U.S. Senate again in 2020 after failing to win the seat two years ago amid sexual misconduct accusations.
Moore announced his campaign Thursday, seeking an eventual rematch against Democratic Sen. Doug Jones. The announcement upends an election viewed by Republicans as a top priority in 2020 and ignores President Donald Trump's warning that he "cannot win."

Let THAT sink in.
Could it be that Alabamans snowed their true colors and voted for a democrat. Can the voters in the state be trusted? Not by evidence. Heck my state of Florida is redder then Alabama now. Who’d thunk-it.
I do not live in Alabama but I have been a fan of Judge Moore for a very long time. I think he has been cheated and mistreated over and over again by the RINO cabal with collusion from the democrats that rules in Alabama. I believe he won the election two years ago but the powers that be decided he was not going to be in the Senate and they manipulated the voting machines and then destroyed the paper record within 24 hours as they won a court order allowing them to do so even though it is against federal law.
The people of Alabama love and admire Judge Moore, and if he chooses to run and he wins the primary, especially if he wins overwhelmingly, then the wishes of the people are again not being respected, and it is proof that he actually won the election two years ago and the only way he would not win in the general is because of cheating.
As far as dating younger women, there was not an abundance of eligible women in their late 20s and early 30s in a small town. He was finally at a point in his life at age 32? where marriage really was next on the agenda, after West Point, Viet Nam and law school. This young man was a good catch. I am sure every mother in town with a daughter over the age 16 had her eye on him.
And how did he do that? By not surviving the most massive and nasty media onslaught against a man since the high tech lynching of Clarence Thomas?
I don't much fault a man for that. Few could survive such a thing. Nixon couldn't.
You’d be an idiot to believe you could win the second time around. Moore’s little gig is up.
Moore is just another Joe Arpaio, it is time to retire to private life.
Do you have proof of Soros paying Moore to run?
The only way a Democrat can hold that seat is if he wins the primary.
Trump is nothing if not a realist.
Moore lost once.
He will more than likely lose again.
A Democrat now sits in that seat because of him.
Really no upside to supporting this Quixotic campaign.
Bottom line: He can’t win.
Hey why not. Congress is the largest geriatric employer in America.
Tactical political moves is not Moore’s strength.
The guy is in his 80’s and didn’t even campaign hard last time. Stop putting up his resume, we don’t care!
Yes, all 651,972 of them.
Apparently Alabama has 651,972 nitwits who voted for Roy Moore over Doug Jones.
The horse, the hat, the gun, etc., etc. Roy is a sad creature without self awearness and needs to be sent to the Ross Perot Funny-Farm where life is beautiful all the time.
If the people of Alabama really loved and admired Judge Moore, he’d be running in 2020 as an incumbent U.S. Senator from Alabama. What did I miss here?
Now, as an Ohioan, I fully respect that the decision as to who runs for the Senate in Alabama is a decision that Alabamans must make; but your judgemental comment is insulting to say the least.
My advice: vote “no.”
Egotistical jerk.
Which they do every single non-Presidential-election year.
But why did Moore's voters stay home? Could it be the most massive media onslaught against a man since Clarence Thomas was to blame for spreading vicious lies that he molested a 14 year old and attempted to rape a 16 year old be to blame for some of it?
And could the fact that the National Republican Party, listening to these same media lies about Moore, Pulled his funding, and thereby convinced a lot of Republicans that these accusations must be true?
"Why would they pull his funds unless he was guilty?" the Average Republican might ask.
And then Richard Shelby, the other Senator from Alabama, getting on National Television and urging the people of Alabama to "write in" some other name than Roy Moore?
Could that deliberate stab in the back have something to do with Moore losing?
