    I wonder how long this nation, so divided, can last.

    Also, Roy Moore is at the very least a disgusting specimen of humanity, and he makes me ashamed to be American.

    He'll fit right in to the Senate.

    I saw a poll conducted of women who said they voted for Moore in Alabama and they asked them if they think women should be in politics. Most of them said no. My thought is put your money where your fucking mouth is honey and don't vote because you don't think you should have the right to. Stand by your principles you fucking stupid bitches and stop plaguing us with your voting when you think you should not be voting. Because you really don't think women should be out of politics, you just think liberal and democrat women should be out of politics. You are perfectly fine with women voting and running for office as long as they vote against abortion, gay rights, them brown people's rights, Hispanic people, atheists, Muslims, and anything else that is not WASPy.

    At least Muslim women stick with their beliefs and keep on wearing the hijab when they are free from laws requiring it. Yes I know there is no Koran requirement to wear it and it is a part of Islamic tradition not dictated by the words of God, but many do continue to wear them even when they no longer have to. Just gef out of politics and voting if you do not feel it is a woman's place due to your sick and twisted cult values. Show us how it is done, or stop voting for men who will take that right away from you the moment they feel safe in winning without your help.

    Consider Roy Moore and the disgusting people who he represents Russian Christians. They are not really American. They are pretty much people who like to live off the state on disability and enjoy a fascist dictator who will punish those who are not white, Christian, male, and straight. Clearly they are Putin's people, and that would make them Russian just like Donald trump. They just live in America. We have plenty of Russian people living in America right now. Having lived and grown up near NYC and knowing places like southern floriduh, D.C., Boston, and big northeast us cities we have always had a decent size Russian presence in the US. Now we just include white evangelicals in that.

    If Roy Moore claimed to be libertarian you would poligasm all over your parent's basement.

    Doesn't it stand to reason that thinking women "shouldn't be in politics" actually means believing they should not run for political office?

    Well, Jones is ahead in the early results. But I have no idea what those precincts are.

    Voter turn out was less than 25%. If the lazy fucks can't even be bothered to vote then fuck them.

    That might be good for Jones if the low turnout indicates Republican voters simply staying home rather than be forced to choose.

    You really are a dumb ass, Dayton. He said women do not belong in politics and he said if they run no one should vote for them.

    Part of it is being an off cycle election. Part of it voter supression. A lot of voters were turned away.

    Politico has it dead even now. CNN has an 0.2% Moore advantage. But it looks like the areas not yet reporting tend Democratic, while most of the heavy Moore counties are 100% in. Not getting my hopes up too much, but it looks better for Jones than it did an hour ago ...

    I think it's down to Baldwin. If the Eastern Shore and Orange Beach and Gulf Shores have already been counted and it's only boonies Baldwin left then that will be a boost to Moore.
