He was blasting Shelby pretty soon after results. The deplorables are looking for someone to blame. Apparently they live in a house with no mirrors.

TitanTiger 20,472 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Does anyone know whether Alabama ever tabulates and releases specific voting totals for write-ins in elections like this? In other words, I'm wondering if we'll know how many write-ins were for Luther Strange, Nick Saban, Gus Malzahn, etc or will it just remain an aggregate total that's unspecified? I would think that maybe when the write-in totals aren't within the margin of victory they don't bother. But Jones won by about 21,000 and there were almost 23,000 write-ins, so it would seem like they should have to to certify the vote officially.

It's still out there, but it's been savaged badly by this ridiculous wave of right wing populism. The majority of their voters have gone off the deep end, electing howler monkeys with regularity. GOP leadership hasn't helped, cultivating the environment that has allowed it to rear its ugly head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of their voters have gone off the deep end, electing howler monkeys with regularity. GOP leadership hasn't helped, cultivating the environment that has allowed it to rear its ugly head. What's ironic is that it's not really populism at all. It's a scam to fool the masses into thinking it's populism. For example, remember when Trump said this: President Donald Trump claimed on Wednesday that the Senate Republican tax plan will cost him and his family "a fortune." Trump turned to his oft-used "believe me" line during a speech in St. Charles, Missouri, telling the friendly audience that the tax plan will cost him. "America's tax code is a total dysfunctional mess. ... It is riddled with loopholes that let some special, including myself, in all fairness -- it is going to cost me a fortune, this thing," Trump said. "Believe me, believe me, this is not good for me." http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/29/politics/trump-tax-plan-fact-check/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Ivey shouldn't run either. She will be crucified for calling this election. I predict Tommy Battle. If Moore runs and wins the nomination a Democrat(no idea who) could have a snowballs chance.

HVAU 673 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The line that WND article is lacking in self awareness. "The activists consisting of Muslims, Hispanics and mainly black Christians...". Now Fake Cowboy Moore, why ever would those people coalesce around your opponent? It just makes no sense.

Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Somewhat related. This line in particular is laughable, because no one is trying to take your religion from you. "I'm Christian, and nobody's going to take that away from me," she said. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/taking-up-the-christian-banner/ar-BBH9vUQ?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
