The important thing to remember when democrats start crowing about sacrificing one's own in the name of morality is that if Franken resigns he gets replaced with another democrat. There is no senate seat at stake. It's an easy "sacrifice" to make. In return there will be demands that the right abandon Roy Moore...of course in that case the difference, and the only thing that matters here, is that the democrats would gain a normally safe GOP senate seat.
The prudent thing for the GOP to do would be to sit back and let Moore win. Let Moore be seated in the senate, and then, if they must, call for him to resign or be removed, so he can be replaced by another republican. Maybe there could even be a recall election, but make sure that seat is established as a red one after next week's election.
A) This is horribly cynical and prove the party affiliation matters more than ethics.

Which is what I think will end up happening.
I still do question why this came out now instead of when he was a Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court and there wasn't one peep, even when he was being removed from it.
Another loony response based on the "there were shadows under his hands" argument If you look at the picture, his fingertips are CLEARLY touching the sleeping and defenseless woman's breasts. There is NO shadow/space between his fingertips and the breasts. That he wasn't engaged in a full grasp of the sleeping, defenseless woman's breasts does not make what he did any less of an assault/molestation. Get real.
What is it that you leftists don't understand?? Franken is on camera sexually molesting a sleeping woman and Conyers paid women off to keep them silent via government-funded settlments. Moore and Trump have mere allegations, which they adamently deny. There is NO comparison, no matter how you try to make it seem.
I note, though, that it took Dems a minute to call for their resignations, even after all I mentioned above, which was public for weeks now.
Now back to watching our president recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital
Grand opening and grand closing
I am loving the left wing meltdown over all of this
Are the cops who prohibited Moore from going to the mall for the fear of him harassing little girls not believable either?
I'm sure the cops in Alabama in the 70s/80s were a bunch of liberuls hating on conservative good men.
Cops prohibiting Moore from going to the mall? Says who? And under what evidence/right did they have the right to do so? If there was ANY evidence that would lead the cops to do so as a lawful matter, Moore would've been arrested then. Cut the crap.

She is clearly wearing the modern-day equivalent of a suit of armor. Forcing his tongue into her mouth is a clear sexual assault, and he should resign, but don’t pretend that we have photographic evidence of an assault.
He sexually harassed a staffer, and paid the settlement with government funds.
