@tmbrown327 Ok, I'm going to ask the obvious question here...
How shitty is the democratic candidate if he can't beat a man accused of child molestation?
And don't say it's a red state thing because I'm from Texas. Something somewhat similar happened here a few years ago and the Republican candidate was destroyed.
@BlackMage Just based on the reporting I've seen, the people down there that support Moore are virulently opposed to any Democrat, no matter what. It's way more hard core than any other state so far, including Texas. Jones is a perfectly reasonable human being and candidate.
@tmbrown327 I understand the partisan aspect of it, but child molestation is a pretty bad label. If the democrats in Alabama can't beat someone with that hanging over their head, then they need to take a look at their organisation, because that's not ALL voter partisanship.
And to play devil's advocate here...you can't really blame Republican voters for being suspicious. I'M NOT SAYING THAT HE DIDN'T DO IT! I'm just saying it's not outrageous to think that dirty tricks occur in politics.
@BlackMage Some of the reporting found voters that say they don't care, as long as he's republican. That is the level of vitriol being openly displayed. They wouldn't vote for Jesus if he was a democrat, really. Not sure what anyone could do against that.
