Americans who are not actively against Moore are immoral. And i see a lot of immoral Republicans planning on supporting a pervert. You will not be able to claim you did not know.
there sis no evidence against moore except the accusations themselves, and thus it is a he said/she said deal here. so what supporting evidence do you have against roy moore, other than suspect testimony?

there is the yearbook signature, but it isnt being released for examination, why? is it possible that it is a fake and would destroy the case against moore?

what other evidence is there? you cant prove that he was banned from the shopping mall because there are no records indicating that from that time frame, and there ARE people that indicate that they would have known if moore was banned, and no one told them.

so where is the evidence against moore? you have none except forty year old witness recollections.

Apparently there is a state law that governs 'term interruption' in Minnesota as well. I heard on the radio a little over an hour ago that if Franken resigns, the person Governor Dayton appoints in his place will face election in 2018, rather than in 2020 which would = the next 'cycle' for Franken.

Clinton denied it too, until the claims got too big.

Moore has how many accusers and others who remember him being banned from the mall for harassing teens, and retired police who remember being told to watch him at football games because he harassed cheerleaders, and others who live in the area that said it was "common knowledge" how Roy was.

He has been caught in lies. The restaurant did exist despite the claim that it didn't.
He did go there according to several waitresses who worked there despite his claims.
He did know at least two of the accusers despite him saying he didn't.

But hey, better a creepy man who preys on teens than a Democrat. Right?

Legal age of consent does not man that they consented.

Same reason I'd vote for any Republican, I don't want a Liberal Democrat in office.

Franken stole that seat with with the mysterious 800 votes found in the trunk of a car. He was the 60th vote for Obamacare. IMO screw him, he deserves it.

I never could take him serious, after seeing him on SNL years ago. Seeing him talk, I always expect to see him break into some bit or something. Not surprised this happened.
