Glad to see Alabama voters see through the smear tactics and dirty tricks of the filthy Democrats. Hopefully the lead holds. The last thing we need in the Senate is another far left liberal like Doug Jones.
Yes, if Alabamians want to confirm the world's impression of them as total idiots, they should go ahead and elect Roy Moore to the Senate.
Prior to Franken Conyers, there were a total of 2 polls that had Jones in the lead, there were 30 with Moore in the lead.
The average of polling you speak of is based solely on site like RCP dropping the previous weeks polls and adding in the new ones with the average as well as having a criteria that excludes most polls.
So while Moore and Jones were tied by RCP's(.2 lead for Jones) that was based on only including 4 polls total.
what you said just inst true. its a fallacy more so than a lie, but it still isnt true.
How about I break it down for you.
there are 6 polls in total that have Jones in the lead. All came out between November 9th and 16.
The Al Franken news broke in the 16th, so you are arguing a causation correlation. The problem with that argument is that during the same time Period
Strategy Research Moore 49% Jones 43%
WT&S Consulting Moore 50% Jones 40%
Emerson College Moore 49% Jones 40%
Change Research Moore 44% Jones 40%
Gravis Marketing Moore 48% Jones 46%
like I said, you are lying to yourself.
What in the hell is your point? You're writing nonsense. Jones started taking the lead immediately after the "scandal" involving Moore broke on November 9th. Jones led in MOST polls between then and when the Franken scandal broke (on the 16th). It wasn't until AFTER the Franken scandal (photographic evidence of sexual assault and all, yet no mass call from Dems for him to resign ) and the lack of calls for him to resign that Moore started to regain the lead (poll taken on 11/20 and from 11/25-11/27). YOU should stop lying to yourself and accept what is evident.
Lastly, I'm NOT speaking of a polling average (yes, RCP drops off "old" polls), but rather of the polling trends, which have Moore again leading following Franken/Conyers assault/harassment allegations and a failure of strong Dem calls to resign all while they were calling for Moore to step aside. This, I submit, is a huge reason for Moore's reversal in fortune. That most polling during this election cycle had Moore in the lead is IRRELEVANT to this discussion as my point does not rely on polling prior to the Moore "scandal" breaking.

Looks like the Pedophile Party will retain its seat.

L is right. the problem here is that there is no evidence that anything untoward happened, only accusations that are 40 years old, and those are unsubstantiated. one accuser supposedly has evidence, but they wont release it for a forensic examination to see if the yearbook signature is real or not. why? is it because they know its a fake, and they dont want to look foolish on the national press?
have the forensic exam done, and if it proves to be real, including the proper ink and the hand writing matches, then i will back the effort to dump roy moore. until then these allegations are just that, allegations with no evidence behind them.

I live in Alabama, I have conservative friends, you know how many of them are even talking about Al Franken or "liberal hypocrisy" .............0
I am in a 100 post debate with a conservative friend and a couple of others now, and do you know how many times Any congressional Democrat has come up..... 0
Hillary Clinton and Doug Jones' support of her has come up 3 or 4 times, and abortion has been the center piece of the debate.
if anything, the poll reversal has to do with the initial shock wearing off.
Using Change research(the poll in your article)
Doug Jones didnt gain any supporters even when he was leading, they simply said "other" or undecided" instead of Roy Moore.

As I said, during the same time period where you claimed there was a polling trend, Roy Moore was still leading in plenty of polls.
And the Republicans in Alabama arent talking about Al Franken or John Conyers. They are voting for Roy Moore because they are pro life, its that simple.
