Wingnutties out of control!

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Yee-haw!!!!!!!!!!
I was seriously pessimistic, and figured the single issue voters (abortion) would ensure Moore's win.
This is too delicious. The Pervert-in-Chief is also a loser. Wonder whom he'll blame?
In 100% of available Alabama races the Pervert-in-Chief's endorsement is the kiss of death.

The exit polls are interesting, if not surprising.

I haven't read Trump's response yet this morning, but it would seem he's in a bit of a pickle no matter what he says. First idea would be to blame the "fake media" and Democratic slime for besmirching the reputation of a fine man, but then he just steps deeper into the dog shit that is Roy Moore. It would be natural for him to distance himself from any "loser" but there are all those clips of his stumping hard for Moore. Whoever wrote his tweet last night (and I'm really sure it wasn't Trump) did a good job, I thought.

Speaking of Moore and his costume stunts -

The majority of Alabama voters message to Moore: "Fuck you and the horse you rode in on" :lol:

Ha!

"But in an effort to save face on Wednesday, he [Trump] insisted he had actually had it right all along -- recalling his earlier support for incumbent Sen. Luther Strange in a primary, before he was defeated by Moore, in what was seen at the time as another bad political bet by the President.
"The reason I originally endorsed Luther Strange (and his numbers went up mightily), is that I said Roy Moore will not be able to win the General Election. I was right! Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him!" Trump tweeted."

But, Moore would have won if not for the child molestation that was not known when he won the primary. Dolt .45 lies to make himself look good, again.

Also:
"If last night’s election proved anything, it proved that we need to put up GREAT Republican candidates to increase the razor thin margins in both the House and Senate."

Dolt .45 blamed Moore, the AL GOP primary voters and whoever is stacking the deck, nary a hint of his having any responsibility.

Alabama Senate Special Election - Moore vs. Jones

Weird, the 3 most recent polls, 12/6 or 7 - 12/9 or 10, show:
FOX News - Jones +10
Emerson - Moore +9
Monmouth - Tie

billy.pilgrim, you're our Alabama expert, what's your guess? I'll predict Moore +3. I'm least certain about the extent to which Moore voters will abandon him in order to protect the state's economy.
The fox poll is shamelessly fake on two fronts
Outrage the right to get out the vote and
Next time there is a poll they don't like they can tell about the nameless poll that showed loser Jones up by 10.

I'm hoping Jones, but would bet on Toy Story Woody in a close race
Jones by 1.5%. billy.pilgrim and I are better pollsters than Faux Noise and Emerson. :D

As it turns out, though, Trump was right despite himself. He did support Strange. If Strange had won the primary, none of this mess would have occurred and he would have won handily last night. But he made a baaaaad bet (although not really unreasonable) that Moore would still prevail in such a Republican-dominated state as Alabama. If Moore had won, Trump could still claim to have been "right" and claimed credit for the win. As is, no matter what he says/claims, he's a loser on this one.

Fox did just fine. As no polls showed a ten point spread, it can be assumed that it was as I said, a fake poll to inflame the base to get out the vote.

And be prepared to see it used in 2018 as proof that polls aren't accurate

I get what you're saying and I wouldn't put it past Faux Noise, but a big 10 point margin discourages voters, not incites them. That's why turnout efforts ALWAYS say that it's very close even when it really isn't.

You're surrounded by Moore counties. :shock: :(

NW Florida makes Alabama seem liberal - well, not dothan. Besides, I'll always call Lee county home and it only shares a small boundary with tallapoosa - where in 1972 deppities arrested my wife for picking blackberries, almost shot my dog and hallucinated me running through the woods.

Compensation? :o Poor little Luther, he will forever be the incumbent that lost to the guy that lost to the first Dem AL Senator in 25 years.

One group fought Roy Moore longer and harder than most:

The Ten Commandments Judge: A Quarter Century of Roy Moore's Unconstitutional Efforts to Mix Law and Religion

Email:
Last night, the eyes of the nation were on the Alabama Senate race.

And we had a special connection to it, because we know Roy Moore very well.

Twice, we filed judicial ethics complaints that got him removed as Alabama’s chief justice. The latest time came just a year ago after Moore ordered state officials to defy the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on same-sex marriage.

We were quiet during the election because our nonprofit status prohibited us from endorsing anyone in the race.

But now I can say that I feel a tremendous sense of relief and pride in my state.

Voters here saw through the demagoguery of a man who repeatedly put his extreme religious beliefs above the law.

They saw through the hypocrisy of a man who preyed on young girls while suggesting that gays and lesbians should be executed to protect children from them.

They rejected a man long associated with white supremacists who has lamented the constitutional amendments passed after the Civil War to prevent states from abusing their power.

They saw Roy Moore for who he is – a raging bigot who is unfit to serve in any public office.

Today is a great day not just for us in Alabama, but for every person in our country who rejects bigotry and values the rule of law.

Today we celebrate. Tomorrow it’s back to work.

Sincerely,
Richard Cohen
President, Southern Poverty Law Center
