Let him run for an executive position, then. This guy is completely unsuited for any role in a legislative body.

Just another money raising opportunity for the Moore family, and not very subtle who they are targeting.

THe new PAC launched by Moore’s son, is called Conservative States of America — and the graphic logo on an email fundraising appeal passed along to the Washington Examiner by a GOP consultant reads “C.S.A.”

“...lightening rod...”??

He makes things less heavy?
He makes colors less dark?

No way he wins the GOP primary. It’s like Christine O’Donnell and Sharon Angle, they thought about running again, but polls show GOP voters in Delaware and Nevada wanted nothing more to do with them after their blunders in 2010.

Moore was the target of an AI disinformation campaign.

This is a situation created by Republican elitists who sacrificed that seat rather than let a supporter of the Deplorable agenda have it. Now all you Fascists and Globalist Deep Staters who have taken over the Republican Party say “not again”? How about “not again” being you defeat the Mitt Romney, Lisa Murkowski, Sue Collins and other infiltrators instead of purging the Republican Party of conservatives?

I can’t blame Moore for wanting to blow up the Republican party. He would have been far better than the ‘rat, but the GOPe prefers the ‘rat.

It is time for the Alabama Republican party to close ranks behind ONE candidate who can unseat Jones. I live in Bama and my pick is Mo Brooks.

I don’t think it is a nightmare at all. He won’t get any support this time.

I hope you’re right but there are still idiots that would support his clownshow.

But Mo hasn’t said he is running. Only Bradley Byrne has put his hat in the race.

He would be my pick but there are others that would support Bradley Burne or some other candidate.

My guess is demos would flock to the republican primary to make sure Roy Moore won the republican nomination. They could hold the senate seat for six more years.

Moore has more political lives than a cat...

Given they have already thrown the he’s a pedophile at the last minute at him last time... Not sure what dirty pool they will try this time..

Not advocating he get into the race, but I would not write this guy off.

“...who cost the Republican party a Senate seat in deep-red Alabama...”

The writer must have not gotten the memo; a defeat is now a resume enhancer — a defeat has projected cross dresser O’Rourke to the top of the presidential sweepstakes.

But, what do the polls actually say in AL regarding Moore?

Did he really loose his base last time, or did the last minute pedo charges just keep the GOP folks outside of his core base home?

The GOP nightmare scenario is not that Moore runs, it is that he wins the race. Moore is unacceptable to the GOPe because he is viewed as uncontrollable.

Alabamans can do better.

I'll believe it when I see it. There was nothing wrong with Moore. He was falsely accused like Kavanaugh. Fewer people were "woke" to the character assassination tricks then, so the liberals succeeded. There is no shame in Alabamans supporting Moore. If they "can do better", great! But at least do as good as Moore, because that would be accomplishment enough.

I think you've hit the nail on the head.
