Then who made those robocalls to voters urging them to vote for Moore? Jeff Flake perhaps? Maybe it was Kirsten Gillibrand with a voice processor.

Given the results, compared to those of other recent elections there, I don't think you can attribute Jones's victory to this one thing alone. For the race to be close was news; for a Democrat to win is stunning. Black turnout was high, which I find completely understandable, given the players in this scenario, but overall turnout was also much higher than usual for a special election.

Moore was a crap candidate, and neither Trump nor Bannon could save him. Quit making excuses.

Trump's decline continues and not fast enough.

OMG, I am so THRILLED, THRILLED,THRILLED, that more Americans are R-E-J-E-C-T-I-N-G, than accepting, the Traitorous, ANTI-AMERICAN,ANTI-DEMOCRACY,RACIST,BIGOTED,HATE-MONGERING,SEXUAL PREDATORS,TRUMP/BANNON PARTY!

GOOD RIDDANCE TO THE TOTALLY AMORAL, DESPICABLE GOP, that has turned a blind eye to all the law breaking/tradition destroying....... the slime-ball TRUMP/BANNON PACKAGE OF garbage has delivered to our nation!

But this sure ain’t good. Probably the biggest loser here is Bannon. It was his idea to double down on the teen creeper, and he put the full weight of his “genius political populist strategist” brain behind it as well as a media empire. And lost.

Republican congress members will feel pretty free to ignore him now.
It does seem that this might blow a hole in his plans to have his enemies in the GOP "establishment" primaried.

Dislike of Trump and/or Republicans outside of his/their base doesn't mean Democrats are back in the driver's seat.


Doubling-down on the war on men is a very stupid move because non-white men are also men and married women are, for the most part, married to men.


Men won't accept having their lives ruined because a woman at work misunderstood what was said, assumed he meant something he didn't or simply wants him out of the way.


Women may approve to one degree or another with the present sexual harassment mass hysteria, and they may do this for different reasons, but when married women have to face the reality that their financial lives can be turned upside-down by a simple accusation, metoo-ism will go away.


I guess it's just projecting, but the left has always overplayed their hand when it comes to hating white males.


Not everyone lives their life that way.


Anyways, it will be fun to watch the left have this new party-redeeming issue shoved up their *** next November.
