Three senators who endorsed Moore prior to the Post’s reporting — Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX), John Cornyn (R-TX) and Rand Paul (R-KY) — have not withdrawn their endorsements.

Party before country. And morality.

In Alabama that is better than their endorsement for Moore.

the “14” brand is going strong.

This should be happening right about now Eastern time.

At 2:30 p.m. Monday, Gloria Allred, a New York lawyer who has championed victims of sexual harassment, will publicly introduce a new woman accusing Mr. Moore of sexual impropriety.

McConnell has raised the stakes on Bannon. Those two goons, sorry “reporters”, Bannon sent down to Alabama to smear the accusers better come up with something soon. Hey, maybe they’ll work faster than the team Trump sent to Hawaii to look into PBO…

So what can they do, legally (or, since we’re talking about Republicans, extralegally), besides a write-in campaign? Can they really postpone the election if Moore withdraws? Ballots have already gone out with his name on them, apparently.

Simply agreeing that the women accusing him are believable and that he should voluntarily step aside is cynicism at its finest, even less acceptable morally than comparing Moore’s situation with that of Jesus’s parents.

If there’s one common thread with predators is that they leave a trail of victims behind. That implies it’s habitual and comes from a deep, dark place in their psyche.

In a sense, they’re disturbingly like serial killers.

Cornyn is dumb.
Paul can claim he was resting.
Cruz can never admit McConnell is right about anything, nor the Mercers wrong about anything.

@littlegirlblue 2017 has been the salvation of Gloria Allred and Lisa Bloom. It will probably also be their ruin, the latter especially.

We need them to force him to step aside but not too quickly. We need Moore’s base to feel utterly cheated by the ‘establishment’, we need them to refuse to be ‘forced’ to vote for Strange (or any other write-in). We need the Republican vote to be unalterably split. I’d say another week and a half should be about right.

Not MSNBC, not CNN. They are both covering the deadlocked jury on the Menendez Trial (not Lyle and bro). Before that they were both running stories on Joe Biden maybe possibly still aspiring to be the first Delaware President.
