Alabama is the armpit of the nation. They're so backwards down there I doubt they even know what century we're in. They were going to send a crazy person to the Senate regardless, because that's all they have down there. It won't change the makeup of the Senate at all, it will just give us yet another rightwing lunatic to point and laugh at. And if he gives McConnell heartburn, that's just an added bonus.
Don't judge the nation by Alabama. We are collectively smarter and much more evolved than the cretins in that state.
I live in Oklahoma, which is very similar culturally to Alabama and in fact might be worse. The thing is, a large portion of the South is like this and not everybody who doesn't want to live in a theocracy has the option to pack up and move to a blue or at least a more moderate red state.
There are maybe five or six states I would live in -- all the rest -- meh -- no thank you. That's on me - -not the quality of life or lifestyle they offer.
Love where you live and stop trashing others...makes you look like you are over compensating for your choices -- lol. I know it isn't true but it just sounds -- bitter or resentful when folks trash other people's lifestyle choices.
If you are happy with your choice, you have little time to trash others for theirs.
President Trump's support of Strange wasn't heartfelt. He knew Judge Roy Moore would win. Moore will show Mitch McConnell how government is supposed to run. He will be good for America.
Sure it's good for America. Another chit-disturber in Congress, hopefully undercutting and stabbing the status quo in the back every chance he gets.

What does trading a Republican for s more conservative Republican even accomplish in the Senate? It doesn't get them any closer to passing healthcare because it isn't the conservative votes they need. The issue Republicans have is they can only lose a couple of votes and so have to be moderate enough to keep the moderate Republicans or pick up moderate Democrats on everything.

Yeah, sure, that is how it is going to go down. If he wins the general election, the junior senator from Alabama is going exert his experience and influence to show how the country should be run.
So I guess that we will then be have the movie Mr Moore Goes to Washington coming to a nearby theater soon?

You're fooling yourself. More moderate, establishment type Republicans, aligned with Mitch McConnell only keeps the US moving in a downward trend.
The same with Democrats.....we need progressive personalities in the mold of Cynthia McKinney to really bash the system politicians and shakeup the whole machine.
The other guy who won is enough of a backwoods rube that conservatives should be happy regardless.
