So, Hillary should have not run due to allegations involving Benghazi and classified materials?

Or are we talking only about sexual allegations?

If it's just sexual allegations, do you feel anyone accused should be removed from the ticket?

If any have been locked up without evidence? Hell, yes.

It's scary to think you might one day serve on a jury since you think people should be locked up without evidence.

He is an accused rapist. Unfortunately it's too late for a trial. But given the testimonies of 4 girls and 30 witnesses the accusations are pretty strong.

I would be outraged with the people who thought dropping the age of consent to 14 was a good idea.

Fmr Dep. DA Theresa Jones, who worked alongside Roy Moore, tells CNN: “It was common knowledge that Roy dated high school girls, everyone we knew thought it was weird...We wondered why someone his age would hang out at high school football games and the mall..."

Alabama would rather have a pedophile representing them than a Democrat. Because, you know, good Christian family values and all that other rot they spout as they wave their Bibles around.

It's scary to think you would serve on a jury since you think rapists should be set free just because it's impossible to "prove" many rapes, and thus many rapists would get off scot free and continue raping.

So, it's o.k. to just keep saying he is a rapist?

For a criminal conviction. No one has suggested putting Moore in jail.
