    It's all projection. It's almost always projection.

    What you scream loudly against . . . you're likely involved in.

    Works for the GOP. And the rest of Washington. And the nation as a whole.

    Yes, you're wrong. Then again, I shouldn't be surprised. You don't even know what the word "your" means.

    Doesn’t have a whole lot to do with the overall point, I guess, but why did the Post include the 18-year-old college student whom he briefly dated (and hugged and kissed)? Doesn’t seem to cross any moral, ethical or legal lines.

    That’s the one Fox News et al. will seize on as evidence of bias. Didn’t need to be in there.

    There is talk of a write-in campaign but it hasn't been clarified if that is even possible.

    So it's either take your chances by leaving him on the ballot or he withdraws and Jones wins by default? Gee wonder what they will do

    If you need a write-in candidate in Alabama, may I suggest Rolfe Tried.

    I disagree. It's not illegal for a 30-something to date an 18-year-old, but it certainly helps establish a pattern that he was interested in women significantly younger than him at that time. She also says he gave her alcohol before she'd reached the then-age-of-majority in Alabama of 19.

    After Trump, we all know better than to think this will cost Moore any votes at all.

    He doesn't even need to deny it. Just have someone on Fox News talk about how ogling and/or fucking underage girls is completely normal, and the people who DON'T do that are the real weirdos.

    Just like they did with Trump.

    But they already have the pattern with three other cases that are actually disturbing.

    Just saying an 18-year-old and a mid-30s dude isn’t all that outlandish. Put it this way: If that was the only story, there would be no story.
