So much for the WaPo anti-Moore story: mother of accuser admits they pressed her into it, disputes details on bedroom phone

He really needs a new lawyer...

Ha, clever move by Hannity to pile on. I'm starting to think Moore has this election in the bag. He's got the entire Establishment against him - left, right and center- daring the voters of Alabama to vote for him.

Where have we seen this movie before?

A couple of movies just played a week and had the BannonBots loosing. (see what I did there?) Will a mid-term go to a whacko? Maybe. Rand Paul and theocrats Paul Ryan and Pence got elected.

Blind dedication to pedos are a good strategy for BannonBots.

How am I defending him? I'm saying that if accusations are true then he shouldn't serve.

Furthermore, Alabama shouldn't be singled out. It's complete hypocrisy to do that when areas of the northeast have consistently elected scumbags. We could sit here all day and google corruption and malfeasance of elected officials in Chicago, Boston, NYC, NJ, DC, Baltimore, Detroit, Oakland, Los Angeles, etc. Are you kidding me? Also, I don't live in Bama and don't give two s#its about Moore. I just reject this notion that Bama is somehow unique vs. the areas I mentioned earlier. There are creeps and criminals of all stripes, including the lib hero, Bill Clinton. And there is 100000x more proof on slick willie vs. this situation, yet he still holds a place of great honor. This is not about geography or political persuasion.

The fact that you put in the effort to list bad things that other politicians have done makes it look like a defense of Moore.

If you a re not defending Moore, what's the point of listing these other people in a thread about Moore?

OK, you don't live in Alabama, neither do I, but if you live in the United States you should care who gets elected to the US Senate.

He's no longer campaigning to interpret local laws, he's now campaigning to write national laws.

And that's why his past is more pertinent than before. The US spotlight is much bigger than the Alabama spotlight.

Sure. You misspelled “losing”.

So is Ed Gillespie your idea of a “Bannon bot”? He was essentially a Bush surrogate, and as Establishment as you can get. Guadagno in NJ?? Who exactly are the BannonBots who were expected to win elections, but lost?

Loosing is the proper word to describe Bannon-bots. But you proved your Trumpian sub-80 IQ as you continued your post.

John, others have pointed this out: The only election of (potential) national importance that's coming up in a few weeks is one in Alabama.

People are "singling Alabama out" because that's the current topic of discussion. Do you seriously not get this?

In just under twelve months there will be 468 contests for U.S. Representatives and Senators. If people from other states single out any one state or race at that time--other than for its potential *national* significance--then yes, people might reasonably take umbrage.

But the election in Alabama in 27 days' time is the only (potentially) big-time election that I know of between now and then. So that contest, and its candidates, are getting a lot of attention. Okay?

Sheesh.

Another sexual molestation claim:

Note, she was 28, so not underage.

Moore was married at the time:

Why in the world would you care if Moore was married at that time? His marriage and his relationships are none of your business.

Sexual molestation, on the other hand, is.

And another one, they are really adding up quickly. Wonder what hannity will say tonight...:

'All the time'

In 1982, Kelly Harrison Thorp was working as a hostess at the Red Lobster restaurant in Gadsden. She was 17 years old and a high school senior.

One day Roy Moore came into the restaurant, and she recognized him.

"He was a public figure in this small town," she said of Moore, who at the time was in his early 30s and the deputy district attorney for Etowah County. Later that year he would mount an unsuccessful campaign for circuit court judge.

Thorp said Moore asked her if she'd go out with him sometime.

"I just kind of said, 'Do you know how old I am?'" she recalled.

"And he said, 'Yeah. I go out with girls your age all the time.'"

2 Moore harrassed women, I believe it is up to 9 now, but they are coming so fast...:

In 2011 only 30% of white Evangelical Protestants agreed that an elected official who committed an immoral act in his or her personal life could still behave ethically and fulfill his/her duties in public and professional life.

In October 2016 the same pollsters found that 72% of white Evangelical Protestants agreed with that proposition.

Hmm. What might have changed over the course of those five years?
