They don’t like strangers in Alabama?
absolutely.. Dems are always well organized .Repubs are a circular firing squad
primary base voters picked Moore
Why, if he was a bad candidate, they rejected Strange, why did they do that? Trump supported Strange, Bannon supported Moore, why did primary voters pick Moore if he was a bad candidate and the allegations or Trump had no influence?
lots of blame on DC establishment. McConnel for backing Strange,instead of some other guy..
Republican politics are disastrous. I'm sure they'll find a way to loose the Senate -as difficult as it is.
Tax Reform has to get done this year - Jones doesn't get seated till next year

i'm no expert on Al. but you do understand primaries? Base voters drive the agenda.
Moore was Red Meat for the red base. Plus there was talk about going against the guy McConnel supported..
DC establishment is really loathed by Alabama republicans -it's why Tump's win was YUGE
Senators starting to object to tax bill. It’s not a done deal, yet. It’s going to be tight and Senators better look at the polls, people hate this tax bill.
Yes, I understand primaries, and Trump backed Strange, so if they supported Trump, why didn’t they vote for Strange? This is what I don’t understand.
it's not a direct line.
endorsemets don't mean voters..
always a lot of grumbling.
Republicans can't sell their ideas, their party is disorganized. However i think even they understand not passing ANYTHING automatically gets them labeled "do nothings" which is the kiss of death
Your logic doesn’t follow, if Alabama voted huge for Trump and still support him, why didn’t they vote for his candidate?
This is what I’m trying to wrap my head around. Grind is claiming it has nothing to do with Trump or allegations, so I’m trying to figure out why Moore lost, if neither of these played a part.

It's all about the turnout.

Don't you want to lecture Democrats about "how to win elections" today?
white women ( soccer mom's) didn't come out - not enough Republican support to overcome big black turnout in cities.
Endorsements don't mean much in any election -look for other factors
So, what were the other factors? You claim it was McConnel and then claim endorsements don’t matter, which is it?
Default The outcome was optimal
Trump supported a child molester who lost election.
1. Moore Lost
2. Jones won.
3. Trump supported a child molester providing a talking point advantage to Democrats
a with women
b against whites Republicans who supported child molester
c reinvigorates investigations and call for resignation of Trump who also is a sexual predator
4. If a Democratic candidate can win in Alabama, the whole of Red State America is "in play" The hate for Trump is strong.
Thank you to all the African Americans and women in Alabama who against all odds kept a serial child molester out of the US Senate, barely.
No thanks to all the straight ticket Republicans who tried to put a child molester in the US senate and failed. There is nothing beneath the dignity
of Republicans. They stand for nothing. Not their religious beliefs, not chivalrous or even civilzed behavior is expected of their leades, not family values,
not the rights of women.

the rejection of McConnel is a factor..endorsement is a factor.
I mentioned it, but hating McConnel clearly doesn't drive voters/ none really drove the election.
Look for the obvious. Moore was the very worst candidate. that's the real bottom line

They won this race with the ‘me too’ formula.
My advice to democrats is to not press too hard on that one lol.

And where did they win? Oh, yeah - Alabama. The deepest of red.
Want my advice? Ditch Bannon - and make sure your candidates distance themselves from Trump. Localize the elections and it may not be an epic landslide for Dems.
