Moore is a lawless individualāheās flaunted the law several times and clearly believes that you only need obey laws with which you agree. Thatās inimical to a society that professes to believe in the rule of law. And besides, heās AHNC, as we say out here in rodeoland, All Hat and No Cattle. A demagogue, a phony and a drugstore cowboy.
Dear TPM: As pointed out by another user on an earlier thread, how about you start putting Jonesās pic up instead of this theocratic faux-cowboy?
I hate the narrative that this could create of another āDemocrat losesā (even if a narrow loss) in a deep red seat that normally would be miles out of reach. That being said, if there was ever a person to go after, it is Moore, who is not fit to hold public office of any kind. So, with that in mind, I have contributed to Jonesās campaign this morning, and I hope that the Democrats go after this seat with full force.
I think Democrats should spend a bunch of money marketing the party, independent of any candidates. They let the GOP make a cartoon caricature of them and are doing nothing to counter that. Marketing can help them take back control of their image on their terms. Remind people what policies they support, bills they have passed, and how they help the average person.
If thatās successful, it makes it a lot easier for a candidate to get their message across.
If Yosemite Sam supported abortion, heād be the ideal GOP candidate.
One side benefit to defeating Moore is that it would really amp up internal Republican strife - the Bannonites will continue to push primary challenges all over the map, but the āestablishmentā party is likely to go nuts at the prospect of losing more absolutely safe seats. Aside from the obvious entertainment value, this is the kind of bitter infighting that will help depress turnout. Confusion to the GOP!
Itās a special election which, by definition, favors Republicans and itās occurring in a deep red state. It would be nice if Jones wins, but I wouldnāt bet a nickle on it happening.
I know Howard Dean thinks the Dems can take this seat going against Moore. I hope they can but, Iām expecting a loss just the same
It says a lot about Alabamans that Moore is ahead in a race to be a senator. Heās insane and incompetent. Regardless, I gave $25 yesterday to Jones, who is a decent man. Why make it easy for the Trump GOP to elect another lunatic?
In the immortal words of Donald Sutherlandās āOddballā -
āHave a little faith, baby, have a little Faith!ā 
Especially when the headline and article are ABOUT Jones. Conservative framing is the default in our media culture, even the āleftā in the political press default to right-wing imagery and language far too often.
Regardless of final result, put a lot of resources into this race and make it high profile to have this nutjob taint the GOP.
The election is in December. Itās going to be hard predict what the electorate will look like for this race. Iām hoping all the right wingers are too busy fighting in āThe WAR on Christmasā and forget to vote.
The silver lining if Moore wins is that it would encourage the Bannon wing to continue their attack on republican senators from the right and may help convince some moderate/electable GOP senators from bluish and purple states to retire.
I agree with the folks who say the Democrats shouldnāt nationalize this election. Let Jones do his job but help him quietly. That technique has worked in the past. If Democrats go big on this race it could cost Jones his chance.
Each time heās elected, the deeply religious christian puts his hand on the Bible and lies.
A note on polls from a guy thatās only watched them. If it starts at 50 / 45 they guy with 50 wins. If its 46 / 45 itās a tight race. That poll indicted a 5 % undecided. If just 1 in 5 of them sides with Moore its over. If all 5 side with Jonesā¦itās a ātight raceā.
Ill bet it starts to break Moore soon. 55 / 45 or worse in 2 weeks.
Turnout.
