Because Roy Moore is not of The Swamp. If you are not of The Swamp, you are a threat to The Swamp. Reminds me of a classic Star Trek episode ...
You are not of The Body Swamp!

The national party pulls out of a fundraising pact with the Alabama candidate, further isolating him.
The Republican National Committee is withdrawing its support for besieged Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, leaving him increasingly isolated as he confronts charges of sexual misconduct with teenagers.
The RNC is pulling out of a joint fundraising agreement it had with Moore, according to a senior party official briefed on the decision. It is also canceling a field program it had set up ahead of the state’s Dec. 12 special election. The committee had about a dozen paid canvassers in Alabama working for Moore. It will no longer transfer any money to the race.
RNC Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel is expected to brief committee members on the decision on a Tuesday conference call.
Even before allegations surfaced against Moore, the committee believed he was in trouble. Internal RNC polling conducted around a week ago showed him leading his Democratic opponent by just two percentage points. The committee has been evaluating its options about what to do about Moore over the last few days.
The move comes as the party intensifies its effort to pressure Moore out of the race. On Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell called on the candidate to “step aside.” McConnell also said he believed the accounts of Moore’s female accusers, who told the Washington Post that Moore pursued them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s.

Why does the Swamp fear Roy Moore?
F the RNC
You don’t dump a nominee because some poll tells you he isn’t ahead at the moment.
This is bullcrap and a lie.
Good.
That means that the GOP just removed every last restraint that Roy Moore has.
And I recall when McConnell was head of the Republican money he cut off a conservative running against Murray in ‘92. We have had that imbecile ever since.
Time to make a donation to the Judge Roy Moore campaign.
Because he won’t genuflect to Herr Yurtle.

Who cares?
It’s Pollutico. They just have to write something whenever possible to sew division and discord.
Can he run as an independent then?
Ok, it’s time to send this man some money. Everyone who can, please send him what you can.
I wish all the GOPe robocallers would leave me alone.
They call from so many different #’s I can’t block them all.
For the same reason some Freepers do.
He is a Christian.
The RNC can go to Hell. I will continue to vote in the primaries, but the RNC and it’s various associated committees do not get one dime from me. Instead of looking to drain the swamp and defeat the corrupt marxist Democratic Party (am I being redundant?), it has been looking at maintaining what they think is the comfortable status quo. Comparisons to Quisling or Marshall Petain could be more appropriate.
Pure BS.
As Reagan said: "I didn't leave the party, the party left me."
What did anyone expect?
The decision is the voters of Alabama, and no one else.
How soon before the RNC endorses the Democrat?
Judge Moore apparently puts the Fear of God in them.
I wonder if making the sign of the cross using forefingers would have the same result.
Maybe we need to round up a supply of wooden stakes?
Amazing. They’re not even telling him he’s on his own. They’re actively advocating the seat go to the rats.
