These polls have been criticized by Huffington Post and others for being fairly obscure pollsters as well as "right leaning". Not sure how you can declare both to be true. If they really are that obscure then we have no historical means to determine their particular leaning. If we can declare them historically to be "right leaning" then they cannot really be that obscure. I would agree that neither is exactly Gallup, but they seem to be in line with other very recent polling showing Moore recovering from the allegations. The difference is that these polls they are showing Moore "opening up" a bigger lead. Until more polling comes out, we will not know if these are outliers or part of a trend.
You are starting to see more mainstream conservatives warming back to Moore with logic sort of like this:
- Apparently Moore has done nothing wrong in the last 40 years. If he had, we would have heard about it. And if he has been pure for 40 years, or close to that time, he will be the most upright man in Washington, D.C. It wasn’t much more than 40 years ago when Ted Kennedy drowned Mary Jo Kopechne, and it was just under 40 years ago when Bill Clinton allegedly raped Juanita Broaddrick. If those offenses can be forgiven, Roy Moore’s (weakly) alleged offenses should be forgiven, too–especially since, unlike Ted Kennedy and Bill Clinton, he seems to have done nothing reprehensible in the decades that have gone by since.
- His opponent is a Democrat. ‘Nuff said–President Trump was right about this. The Democrats are doing everything they can to block the Republican agenda in the Senate, and giving them another seat would only empower the flakes like John McCain and Susan Collins who seek to mold every vote toward their own eccentric visions. Let’s not weaken the GOP in the Senate any further. The Republic hangs in the balance.
www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2017/11/roy-moore-for-senate-2.phpWith still over two weeks to go, I suspect that the allegations will lose influence over many conservative and/or Republican voters. Especially considering the feckless reaction from Democratic Leaders as it pertains to Al Franken and John Conyers and their allegations. Had the Democrats called for (and received) the immediate resignations from both, these allegations against Moore would be harder to ignore. As it stands, apparently allegations (and proven examples) of sexual abuse is NOT disqualifying from serving in Congress. That's good news for Moore.

No surprise there....Keep up and win!!! Moore will be the gift that keeps on giving for years and we can all thank the idiot electorate of the backwater state of Alabama.....LOL
They are somewhat more believable in that the alternative to Moore is to support baby-killing which is untenable if not more so.
If only the Democrats had fielded a pro-life candidate. Roy Moore could have been toast.
The Democrat is like Senator Obama pro-infanticide.
Senator al franken is not resigning.
Opie...
If elected, Moore will be seen no differently than Franken and Conyers...
Only all of allegations against Moore happened forty years ago, Franken and Conyers have apparently been abusing women while serving in Congress.
The left attempting to play it differently will run into the same issues of hypocrisy that have plagued them, and made it impossible to take them seriously on many of these "ethical" issues.
Hint: Pretending in 2017 that Bill Clinton should have resigned twenty years ago, and then standing by your current Democratic sexual abusers... proves that Democrats like to "talk" a good game, but fail to follow through.

Flynn’s Lawyer Meets with Special Counsel’s Team
“The lawyer for President Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn met Monday morning with members of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team, the latest indication that both sides are discussing a possible plea deal,” ABC News reports.
“That process would typically include a series of off-the-record discussions in which prosecutors lay out in detail for Flynn and his lawyers the fruits of their investigation into his activities. Prosecutors would also provide Flynn an opportunity to offer what’s called a ‘proffer,’ detailing what information, if any, he has that could implicate others in wrongdoing.”

ted kennedy murdering mary jo kopechne was a watershed moment for democrats.
that's when they realized that one of them could literally commit murder and not face any consequences.
murder for chrissakes. if that doesn't drive one of them out of office then what possibly could?
also, richard nixon's single biggest mistake was not being a liberal democrat.

Retired Marine to Launch Write-In Campaign In Alabama
Lee Busby, a retired Marine colonel who once served as a top aide to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, “plans to launch a long-shot write-in campaign Monday afternoon to become Alabama’s next senator, with just 15 days left in the campaign,” the Washington Post reports.
Said Busby: “I think you can flip this thing. If this were a military operation, the left flank and the right flank are heavily guarded. I think that gives you an opportunity to run straight up the middle.”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court, which has avoided major gun cases for seven years, on Monday declined to hear a challenge backed by the National Rifle Association to Maryland's 2013 state ban on assault weapons enacted after a Connecticut school massacre.
The court turned away an appeal by several Maryland residents, firearms dealers and the state NRA association, who argued that the ban violated their right to keep and bear arms under the U.S. Constitution's Second Amendment.
....The challengers, who had sued Maryland's governor and other officials in 2013, appealed a February ruling by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia that upheld the state's law. The 4th Circuit, ruling 10-4, said it had no power to extend constitutional protections to "weapons of war."
_____________
So the Supreme Court is refusing to extend constitutional protections to "weapons of war" such as machine guns, flame throwers, bazookas, grenade launchers, surface to air missile launchers, mortars, and rapid-fire semi automatic rifles that can be altered to make them fire even more rapidly.

James Comey's pedestal is crumbling
............And it's certainly of a piece with President Obama's failure to take any action on Russian electoral meddling so long as he was convinced Hillary Clinton was winning the race.
It just goes to show an emerging picture of Comey as an incompetent in addition to a partisan whose sympathies slant left.
Besides ignoring the hacking attempts, he also turned out all along to be wiretapping Trump Tower, looking for evidence of Russian collusion, even though he said he wasn't.
He pre-wrote his letter exonerating Hillary Clinton for running an illegal private server hosting sensitive State Department communications in some guy's bathroom – wrote it before the investigation was even finished.
He admitted he had handed information memos to a Columbia University buddy expressly for the purpose of leaking them to the press.
Now it turns out he was about as concerned as Obama about Russian hacking attempts in the days when Hillary was winning.
Was this guy really about guarding and protecting America's secrets? Or was he just a bumbling partisan hack? That $10 million he reportedly got as a book advance is starting to look less and less like a smart investment that will sell books and advance Comey's stature. Right now, Comey's legacy is falling apart
Trump Derangement Syndrome's little brother is on its way
My schadenfreude knows no bounds this morning. I am looking forward to progressives already driven into sputtering, mouth-foaming, career-ending rage by Trump Derangement Syndrome to compound their misery, as their most troublesome pre-Trump demons return to haunt them, amplified a hundredfold by the news I just read.
Reuters reports:
U.S. media group Meredith has reached a deal to acquire Time, the U.S. publisher of Sports Illustrated and Fortune magazines, the company said Sunday evening.
Meredith said it had entered a binding agreement to acquire all outstanding shares of Time for $18.50 per share in an all-cash transaction valued at $2.8 billion. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of calendar 2018, the company said.
So what? Just follow the money:
Meredith's bid for Time is backed by an affiliate of billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch.
Koch Industries has been backing Meredith's bid with $600 million in financing, sources previously told Reuters.
That's right: the Koch Brothers! You remember them, right? If not, here is a minute and forty-eight seconds of Harry Reid of invoking them with the same sort of voice Cotton Mather used for Satan.

The Supreme Court Doesn’t Have Any Good News For Westboro Baptist
A court case out of Nebraska was challenging a law regarding restrictions on protests which interrupt funerals. It takes little imagination to guess that this was aimed directly at Westboro Baptist Church. The church had challenged the law on constitutional grounds but lost their bid in the lower courts. Rather than taking up the task yet again, the Supreme Court declined to hear it and allowed the lower court ruling to stand, keeping the law in place. (Fox News)
This is a victory for decency and a lost for cruel hate.
And it's a free speech restriction I think we can all live with.
So you actually believe that it's just fine to have a pedophile Republican Senator
Wow! How far into the swamp you've gone!

Anyone else asking themselves who exactly Roger is asking these questions of?
Roger has a lot of voices in his head, so they may be retorical.
The Moore campaign planted a fake "victim " of his pedophilia. The Washington Post smelled a rat. They are getting worried and despite.
It looks like you are comfortable with a pedophile as a Republican Senator. Is that ok with you Scott?
Roger - I have a confirmed sexual abuser as my Senator, who openly admits that others will probably step forward and make similar accusations against him...
and he is refusing to step aside.
Alabama has a person who was accused of (but certainly not proven to be) a sexual abuser, and admits that 40 years ago he chased some younger girls.
I guess it's up to "them" if they want him as their Senator.
I just supplied you with an opinion of someone who provides a reasonable opinion as to why "they" would vote for them.
By the way... are you a drunk, or a former alcoholic who expects to be judged by your behavior over the past few years, rather than what you did earlier in your life?
Git criminal conviction?
Moore and James are Pedophiles according to Roger the pervert who asked Ette to F*ck him.
First before I address the formerly analytical host.
Roy Moore compares accusations against him to Russia probe
(CNN) - Senate candidate Roy Moore said at a campaign event Monday that the sexual allegations he faces are "completely false" and "malicious," and said he doesn't know any of the women levying them.
The Alabama Republican compared the allegations to the probe into 2016 Russian meddling in the US election and potential connections between President Donald Trump's campaign and Russians.
"The people of this country want movement. They don't want false attacks like this. That's exactly what's happening in this case," Moore said. "They want to hide the true issues of immigration and health care, military readiness, taxes, abortion and transgender rights. They also not only want to hide the issues, they don't want my opponent's issues revealed; how he stands on these issues. I'll tell you how he stands: completely contrary to the people of this state and this country."
Several women have come forward and accused Moore of pursuing relationships with them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s, and several others also have accused him of assault.
On Monday, Moore cast the allegations as "malicious, false attacks, which reflect the immorality of our time." He compared the Washington establishment's opposition to him to former President Barack Obama's remarks about those who cling to guns and religion.
"There is an established group in Washington that does not want to change. They want people who will follow along like they've been doing and not basically pass President Trump's agenda," Moore said.
Moore said he has represented women who have levied similar allegations before. "I have not seen one who wants her picture posted on national TV, especially in a political advertisement," he said.
"The truth is, this is not really odd at all. This is simply dirty politics. And it's a sign of the immorality -- it's a sign of the immorality of our time," Moore said. "This is just a sign of the times in which we live. Politicians will stop at nothing to win an election."
Moore said he's faced "numerous investigations" over decades and noted that the allegations never previously surfaced.
"I want to tell you first, this hurts me personally. Because besides my wife, my mother and my only daughter, we have five granddaughters. And it hurts to think people would attack your character like that after 40 years. And it's a little odd ... that after 40 years of service to this state and this community, and 50 years if you count my military service, never once has this been alleged," he said.

All things considered our host didn't have a problem stating that the Senator who inappropriately touched adult women is equally disqualified to the pedophile who is running for the Senate.
Whacko.
First and you know better that a recovering alcoholic doesn't necessarily suffer brain damage. I have been tested several times after the transplant. They said that I am normal in every single way.
So a simple question. You will dodge and dance.. Do you believe that the Senator who inappropriately touched adult women is equally disqualified as the pedophile who is running for the Senate?
Dodger Dog!
I guess it's up to "them" if they want him as their Senator.
That's how you dodge the question.
Childish duck and cover by CH
President Trump commented on Elizabeth Warren's heritage at event honoring Native American code talkers:
"You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas."
Off camera I suspect that they did not appreciate the name calling. What a fucking moron in chief.
The lawyer for President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn met Monday morning with members of special counsel Robert Mueller’s team — the latest indication that both sides are discussing a possible plea deal, ABC News has learned.
Trump’s legal team confirmed late last week that Flynn’s attorney Robert Kelner alerted the team that he could no longer engage in privileged discussions about defense strategy in the case — a sign Flynn is preparing to negotiate with prosecutors over a deal that could include his testimony against the president or senior White House officials.
Anyone else asking themselves who exactly Roger is asking these questions of?

Yep, we've had an interesting indian summer heat wave....wonder when it will be noticed??? Amazing amount of record highs versus record lows this past year.....something like a 80 to 1 ratio for the year ...Yep, it is all a hoax to get funding.....LOL
Dozens of record highs are likely to tumble on Monday across the southern and central Great Plains. At 11 AM MST, it was already 76°F in Goodland, KS; 78°F in Sidney, NE; and 81°F in La Junta, CO—all records for the date.
For the week ending Saturday, the NOAA/NCEI U.S. Records site tallied a preliminary total of 830 daily record highs and 1075 record-high daily minima, compared to 11 daily record lows and 29 record-cold daily maxima.
I think we can safely say it's now a trend.

Shut up k'putz. I said that if she saw my tight white ass that she would want to have sex with me. Inappropriate? Possibly. Get over it.
This is the most embarrassing moment for the United States by this President. His racist strategy is working for his base supporters.
"You're very, very special people. You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas. But you know what. I like you. Because you are special, "
This will help him in the Republican party base. But even though that he is the least popular President in his first term in history, this deeply racist remark, almost no Epublicans called him out. They think, "Oh well, it's just Trump being Trump"
Mr. Trump was referring, as he often has, to Ms. Warren, Democrat of Massachusetts, a former Harvard Law School professor who came under fire in 2012 after it emerged that, during her academic career, she identified herself as a minority, citing Native American roots.
The comment drew swift rebukes from Native American leaders, including one who was present for the ceremony. Russell Begaye, the president of the Navajo Nation, called the president’s mention of Pocahontas “derogatory” and “disrespectful to Indian nations.”
I would like to think that this is a "bridge to far" comment, but nope.

Acyrologia — An incorrect use of words, particularly replacing one word with another word that sounds similar but has a diffident meaning, possibly fueled by a deep-seeded desire to sound more educated, witch results in an attempt to pawn off an incorrect word in place of a correct one. In academia, such flaunting of social morays is seen as almost sorted and might result in the offender becoming a piranha, in the Monday world, after all is set and done, such a miner error will often leave normal people unphased. This is just as well sense people of that elk are unlikely to tow the line irregardless of any attempt to better educate them. A small percentage, however, suffer from severe acyrologiaphobia, and it is their upmost desire to see English used properly. Exposure may cause them symptoms that may resemble post-dramatic stress disorder and, eventually, descend into whole-scale outrage as they go star-craving mad. Eventually, they will succumb to the stings and arrows of such a barrage, and suffer and complete metal breakdown, leaving them curled up in the feeble position.
That's why I laugh at his attacks on me
Just 9% of Trump Voters Believe Allegations Against Moore

A Tweet To Far
Democratic Leaders Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi pulled out of a planned meeting with President Trump at the White House this afternoon after the president tweeted that he doesn't "see a deal" to be reached with the Democratic leaders on government funding — raising the specter for a potential government shutdown in December.
“Given that the President doesn’t see a deal between Democrats and the White House, we believe the best path forward is to continue negotiating with our Republican counterparts in Congress instead," Schumer and Pelosi said in a joint statement. "Rather than going to the White House for a show meeting that won’t result in an agreement, we’ve asked Leader McConnell and Speaker Ryan to meet this afternoon. We don’t have any time to waste in addressing the issues that confront us, so we’re going to continue to negotiate with Republican leaders who may be interested in reaching a bipartisan agreement."
Earlier in the day, the president expressed pessimism about the prospects for a deal on Twitter.
Trump has successfully painted the Democratic leadership as obstructionist and they fell right into it.
And Roger like a fool cheers them on.
The race to win the title of "the party of stupid" is now neck and neck.

Three Groups of Wavering Senators
The Wall Street Journal identifies three blocs of Republican senators who have not yet committed to supporting their party’s tax bill.
“One group, including Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Steve Daines (R-MT), wants deeper tax cuts for so-called pass-through businesses such as partnerships and S corporations that pay taxes on individual rather than corporate tax returns…. Another group, including Bob Corker (R-TN), Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and James Lankford (R-OK), is concerned about the $1.4 trillion addition to budget deficits the bill would cause… A third group, including Susan Collins (R-ME) and John McCain (R-AZ), helped kill the Republican health-care bill earlier this year and could pose resistance over a variety of provisions, including plans to repeal the Affordable Care Act’s health-insurance mandate as part of the tax bill.”

Trump Doesn’t See Deal to Avoid Shutdown
President Trump cast doubt on avoiding a government shutdown, tweeting that he didn’t believe a deal could be reached with Democrats:

Top Democrats Pull Out of White House Meeting
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer abruptly pulled out of a White House meeting after President Trump’s Twitter attack this morning the AP reports.
They said they’d skip a “show meeting” at the White House and instead ask for a meeting with their Republican counterparts, House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

First Read: “The smart money is that Congress will pass a short funding bill that will set up a government-spending showdown right before Christmas. Unlike the tax bill, this measure needs 60 votes in the Senate – and thus votes from Democrats. And here’s where we can expect big fights over funding for Trump’s border wall, over DACA (with Senate Democrats saying they won’t fund the government without protecting the DREAMers) and maybe over raising the debt limit, too.”
“But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction” (2 Peter 2:1).

Roy Moore Leads Doug Jones In First Post-Thanksgiving Alabama Poll
Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore (R) has regained a slight lead against Democrat Doug Jones in the first post-Thanksgiving poll, a sign that while the multiple allegations of sexual misconduct have bruised his campaign he’s not done yet.
Moore leads Jones by 49 percent to 44 percent in a new online survey from Change Research, reversing a small 3-point lead Jones had held in the pollster’s first survey after the allegations against Moore surfaced two weeks ago.
It was "sudden" and "unexpected".

North Korea launched a ballistic missile today, marking the latest missile test by the hermit nation and the first in over two months, according to a U.S. official.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency was the first to report the launch, citing South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
“North Korea launched an unidentified ballistic missile eastward from the vicinity of Pyongsong, South Pyongan Province, at dawn today,” the Joint Chiefs of Staff said, according to Yonhap.
This marks the end of the longest stretch of time since President Donald Trump took office in January that the regime has not conducted a test.
Reporter and writer Joshua Green met Thomas Begay, one of the code talkers honored Monday, on his way out of Washington, D.C. Green asked him about the event. Begay said he was “puzzled” about the comment but not offended.
Then Begay dropped a very non safe-space one liner:
“The Marines made us yell ‘Geronimo’ when we jumped out of planes and that didn’t offend me either.”

You saw the typical Trump supporters. White cubicle moron.
I wouldn't get too excited about that Change Research poll, nor the earlier Strategy Research poll that had Moore with a slight lead.
It all comes down to how many Alabama Republicans care more about voting R than voting a probable child molester, and who can say at this point? Certainly no poll will capture that. I expect that most people voting for Moore are going to rationalize it, contending there is room for doubt or willfully suspending their credulity, but in the end it will come down to their values and I don't think that a poll can winnow that out.
It's a toss-up. The other side of that coin is that the same sentiment that rejected the Trump-endorsed opponent could work now against Moore given at least the pretext of this issue, and those voters may also be reticent about admitting that they're leaning D on this one.

It all comes down to how many Alabama Republicans care more about voting R than voting a probable child molester, and who can say at this point?
The reason most liberals are totally clueless about the Alabama electorate is that they view abortion as merely a political issue and they never understood how morally offensive and evil abortion is to this electoral.
They are choosing between a "probable" child molester to a supporter of definite child killers.
Which way to you do think they would choose as the lessor of two evils?

wp, I figured that poll was not credible. It's not as well known pollster.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
yeah, yeah, that's it.
because it was all the WELL KNOWN pollsters who predicted hillary BY A LANDSLIDE.
boy alky, if there's any flies on you they're payin' fuckin' rent.
You are a joke.
Ten possible heroes.
Maine’s Susan Collins has criticized the legislation for including a repeal of the individual mandate for purchasing health insurance, arguing that Republicans should leave health care out of this bill. She has also suggested that the bill cuts taxes on corporations too deeply and should instead put more money toward tax reductions for individuals. Also, Collins is the Senate Republican who most often votes against legislation backed by Trump and Senate GOP leadership, according to FiveThirtyEight’s Trump Score. Kansas’s Jerry Moran has also criticized the inclusion of the individual mandate.
Tennessee’s Bob Corker and Arizona’s Jeff Flake and John McCain have expressed concerns about the deficit growing under this legislation. (The Senate bill is currently estimated to increase the deficit by $1.4 trillion over the next 10 years.) Corker has gone the furthest of the three, saying that if “we are adding one penny to the deficit, I’m not going to be for it.”
The three men face no political pressure to back this legislation. Corker and Flake are not seeking re-election next year, while McCain’s brain cancer diagnosis means he is unlikely to run for another term in 2022. All of them have questioned Trump’s judgment, and Trump has returned the favor by attacking them in deeply personal terms. This trio can weaken a president they disdain by blocking the tax proposal he strongly supports and leaving him without a major legislative achievement in his first year.
Oklahoma’s James Lankford and Indiana’s Todd Young have said they, too, are worried that the Republican tax proposals increase the deficit too much — but they face some political pressure to get behind this bill. Unlike Corker, Flake and McCain, they are likely to seek re-election and are in states where Trump won overwhelmingly in 2016.
Wisconsin’s Ron Johnson says the legislation’s tax cuts unfairly favor large corporations over smaller businesses. Montana’s Steve Daines has similar concerns.
Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski actually defended the repeal of the health insurance mandate in an op-ed she wrote in an Alaska newspaper last week. But she remains a wild card. She, like Collins, is a regular dissenter from Trump and Senate leadership. And both of them, along with McCain, showed that they are willing to kill major GOP initiatives when they voted against Obamacare reform this summer.
With that many members wary of the legislation, there are two general paths this process can take. One path is that Senate Republican leaders and Trump, making the case for party unity, persuade the Senate GOP to get its bill passed as soon as possible, resolve any differences with the House quickly and send final legislation to Trump’s desk before Christmas.
"improbable" or "probable" pedophile Menstrual? Why would all those women step up and put themselves on the public record a face public scrutiny? Do you seriously think that it's probable that they would do it for political reasons?
They are choosing between a "probable" child molester to a supporter of definite child killers.
Which way to you do think they would choose as the lessor of two evils?
Abortion/pro Life is just a wedge issue that doesn't really impact the elections. It's a good one to get people riled up, but Republicans in Alabama are about 60-65% "pro life". Just a red herring that has no relationship to the accusations against Moore.
But if it makes you think Moore's got this in the bag because he's pro-life, then don't let me throw a wet blanket on your warm fuzzies. Just because he's a hypocrite about child molesters and sex crimes, doesn't mean he wouldn't likely have an illicit girlfriend having an underage abortion ... oh wait, maybe it does ...
Why would all those women step up and put themselves on the public record a face public scrutiny?

Roger you sexual came on to Ette.
Now you want to preach morals to US.

To ignore the actual reality on the ground just to maintain your prejudice view is just willful ignorance.
There's no point in continuing because there's nothing left to say.
Actual reality is that Abortion is practically a non-partisan issue nationwide! About 65-35 in each party, a little higher with the Democrats, with the sides reversed. It's as divisive within the parties as much as between them.
If you want the true "reality on the ground", abortion is never a central issue unless it's needed as a circus to distract you from the real issues. Neither party, ever, is going to stray so far from the center on abortion as to alienate a significant portion of their own constituency. At the same time, the radical wings of either party are precisely the ones who are more extreme with the abortion issue - and they (you) don't matter if you're disturbed about the abortion stance because you're already voting against the other party, no matter what.
Only a the extremist rogue politician types use abortion as a central platform plank, and it almost always backfires on them. Those are the real "facts on the ground".
Cool, yawn.
Sen Warren , called it racism for calling her "Pocahontas".
She is 1/35th sum'm.
We're not talking nationwide, we are talking about the state of Alabama.
And were are talking about evangelical voters who take abortion seriously as a moral issue.
In Alabama, shift the Abortion/Life numbers by 5% and it all still applies. It's still just a circus issue especially since BOTH candidates hold the extreme position in this case. The extremists on either side are incensed and won't comprehend how anyone could vote for the other guy, but this election won't be about who can garner more extremist votes. Moore probably hopes so, but I don't see how there is any movement that isn't in the moderate segments and that bunch on either side, even in Alabama, is more split on that issue and usually are not single-issue voters. It's just a sideshow.

CH never answered my question. Is it better to have a pedophile, as a Republican, than a Democrat in the Senate?
Silence
Proof of stupidity on steroids..
rrb
how many zero's were on the checks the WaPo wrote to these hacks in pursuit of their takedown of moore?
He's as nuts as the President
Matt Lauer of NBC News fired for inappropriate sexual behaviour.
LOL, damn liberals chickens coming home to roost.

Roger you sexual came on to Ette.

Again nobody was surprised about Lauer. There were rumors but everybody was too afraid of him to come forward.
If only they had anonymous sources?

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
stupid question, alky.
on the one hand...we have hearsay, and not conclusive evidence that moore is a pedophile.
while on the other hand we have conclusive, documented evidence as well as confessions that numerous preening liberal asshats are rapists, sexual predators, sexual abusers, or garden variety grab-ass perverts.
so there's the answer to your question alky, you drunken sot.
and now, allow me to cordially invite you to go fuck yourself.
Roger is a self identified pervert, lusting to have sex with Ette a married woman.
JMC Analytics:
Moore 48%, Jones 43%, Write-ins 4% (5% undecided)
Moore 49%, Jones 44%, Write-ins 5% (2% undecided – leaners included)
Generic Republican preferred 49-46% (5% undecided)
There are three main takeaways: (1) Roy Moore has regained his lead in the polls; (2) Republicans have similarly regained the lead in the generic ballot test, and (3) allegations of sexual misconduct against Roy Moore have not materially impacted the race.
So how many polls will it take for WP to pay attention?
BTW it's not up to Roger CH or anybody outside of Alabama to make the decision for their senator.
It's in the hands of Alabama voters only.
It's in the hands of Alabama voters only.
Which will prove without a doubt why Alabama is a backwater, low IQ state....LOL You don't get to be 49th in education without trying!!!! The US will become a laughingstock for the world....Just like you like it menstral...LOL
They don't have you and that's a blessing.
GW has nothing to do with hurricane frequency, but it sure looks like damage can be linked...just saying
Watson and Johnson looked back at all Atlantic hurricane seasons since 1871, and ran detailed storm surge, wind, and inland fresh water flooding models to determine what damages each storm would have caused had that occurred in 2017. For example, the Great Miami Hurricane of 1926, a Category 4 storm with 130 mph winds that made a direct hit on Miami, was modeled to have caused $47 billion in damage were it to hit today. Summing up all of the damages for each year, the season that came in second place behind 2017 for highest U.S. damages turned out to be 1893, a hyperactive year that featured three major hurricanes that made landfall in the U.S. (plus a fourth in Puerto Rico, which was not yet a U.S. territory at the time). The year 2005 came in third place. The list of the top ten most destructive hurricane seasons since 1871, were they to occur in 2017, looked like this:
menstral proffered.....
They don't have you and that's a blessing.
Yep, but you sure fit in just perfectly
So how many polls will it take for WP to pay attention?
Eh? That's unfolding as I predicted. I told CH from my first post that the allegations probably wouldn't ultimately change Moore's support very much.
And by the way, pay attention to "Question 8" from those polls.
"Given the allegations that have come out about Roy Moore’s alleged sexual misconduct against several underage women, are you more or less likely to support him as a result of these allegations?"
29% said that the allegations made them more likely to vote for Moore. It is safe to say that most of those 29% don't believe the allegations, so they are claiming that the fact of allegations themselves, having nothing to do with Moore himself (in their opinion) increase their regard for Moore. It illustrates what I expressed earlier, that people will tailor their reasons after the fact, convincing themselves that an accusation must be false because it would conflict with a decision already made. There is no other rational reason why an allegation of misconduct increases your support (unless you support the misconduct itself).
Is that not consistent with everything I have to date written on this subject?
