    Roy Moore, the Alabama Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, has been accused of previous sexual misconduct with teenagers, which he has denied.

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Monday, "I believe the women" and called on Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore of Alabama to "step aside."

    McConnell made his remarks at a news conference in Kentucky. Moore has been accused of initiating sexual contact with a 14-year-old in 1979 when he was 32. Three other women have accused Moore of inappropriate contact when they were teens.

    McConnell had initially said last week Moore should end his candidacy "if" the allegations were true. McConnell had supported the incumbent senator, Luther Strange, in the primary. He said a write-in campaign for Strange is now "an option."

    'I Have Never Engaged In Sexual Misconduct,' Moore Says In Statement
    Moore has come under increasing pressure from GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill to step aside prior to the Dec. 12 special election in Alabama. He has refused, saying the accusations were "false and untrue" and threatening to sue The Washington Post, which first reported the story on Nov. 9.

    Moore responded to McConnell via Twitter, saying McConnell "has failed conservatives and must be replaced."

    The person who should step aside is @SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell. He has failed conservatives and must be replaced. #DrainTheSwamp

    The National Republican Senatorial Committee has pulled out of a joint fundraising agreement with Moore, and the list of prominent Republicans opposing Moore's candidacy has steadily grown.

    The most recent is Maine's Sen. Susan Collins, who in a statement on Twitter Monday said she "did not find Moore's denials to be convincing."

    I have now read Mr. Moore’s statement and listened to his radio interview in which he denies the charges. I did not find his denials to be convincing and believe that he should withdraw from the Senate race in Alabama.

    Republican leaders in Alabama, however, have largely defended Moore. Alabama State Auditor Jim Zeigler said there is "just nothing immoral or illegal" about the allegations and compared them to biblical marriages. The comments drew criticism from some evangelical leaders.

    Meanwhile, Republican Gov. Kay Ivey has called the allegations against Moore "deeply disturbing," but on Monday she said, "I will withhold judgment until we get more of the facts," according to WSFA in Alabama.
    Monday afternoon, attorney Gloria Allred will hold a news conference in New York with a new accuser, who says Moore sexually assaulted her when she was a minor.

    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Step aside because of unproven allegations?

    Why?

    You got to find it humorous when a conservative employs "unproven allegations" as a concern, we just experienced nine years of political "investigations" and media litigation on everything imaginable Clinton/Obama and no allegation was ever proven, but that never stopped the right from believing and promoting every innuendo and conspiracy.

    And now their telling us they are so concerned with "unproven allegations?"

    That's different.

    The Clintons have D's after their names.
    What kind of country have we become?

    One in which federal prosecutors can take “evidence” before a “grand jury,”

    and that grand jury can “vote to indict” a former president for 91 alleged “crimes”?

    Yes, Zappacrite, we can all see how you demanded the same thing when Blowjob Billy was the one facing delayed accusations.
