...after AP Calls Alabama Race for Democrat Doug Jones

Politics is a bloodsport...but, it is also a people contact sport. When I learned back a week or so ago, that Judge Roy Moore was not out campaigning in public...I knew this political game for Moore was over or, at least on a dangling, dangerous lifeline. One of the many major reasons that Democrat, Hillary Clinton lost her POTUS run to Donald J. Trump is that she literally stopped major campaign activity starting in August, 2016...a big, major mistake. Pressing the flesh of voters is an absolute must and, Doug Jones did exactly that many times over. Roy Moore did...

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) responded to Democrat Doug Jones’s victory Tuesday in the Alabama Senate race by saying “Decency wins.” Flake, who has announced he will not seek reelection in 2018, was a vocal critic of Republican candidate Roy Moore. Moore was plagued during the campaign by allegations of sexual misconduct, including accusations that he made advances on teenagers when he was in his 30s. Flake wrote Jones’s campaign a $100 check, writing “Country over Party” in the memo line. Flake pointed to Moore’s past remarks that Muslims should not serve in Congress as an indicator he is “unfit” for...

Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon was widely mocked in political circles following Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore’s humiliating loss in the deep-red state of Alabama. Bannon was one of Moore’s earliest supporters and campaigned in Alabama for the scandal-plagued candidate. In the primary run-off, Bannon backed Moore over President Trump’s preferred candidate, Republican Sen. Luther Strange. (RELATED: WSJ Editorial: Bannon May Be Rooting For Republicans To Lose The Senate) “Luther Strange would have won in a landslide… Just too much crazy in nerve racking times,” influential news kingpin Matt Drudge wrote on Twitter following Moore’s loss. “There IS a limit!”

As the future of the United States of America hangs in the balance, the Republicans predictably cowered to the latest Democrat smear attempts in the Alabama Senate election. After being political abandoned by the Republican party and many mainstream pundits, Judge Roy Moore lost the Alabama Senate election in an upset to Democrat Doug Jones.

It's really quite simple.....An American citizen, woman or man, is innocent until proven guilty by a judge, jury of their peers and a solid conviction of said accused crime. Allegations & Accusations carry no meaning whatsoever, until they are duly proven to be true & factual in a recognized court of law. If women voice a charge of crime or sexual abuse, then they must follow those charges through and file criminal charges and/or law suits in a recognized court of law. They have not done this, so their outburst of sexual abuse carry neither weight or merit. Alabama, voters,...

Fox News is back in action with the single most ridiculous, psy-op engineered, agenda polls in the last several years…. and coming from a CTH community that has reviewed hundreds of media polls in the past 5 years, that’s quite a statement. Consider:

Shocking new @EmersonCollege POLL: @realDonaldTrump endorsement making huge impact as #RoyMoore is now in great position for Tuesday #ALSen election.

President Trump is warning Alabama voters against voting for Democrat Doug Jones in the Alabama Senate election this week, saying in a robocall that Jones in the United States Senate would be a blow to his “America First” immigration agenda. In a robocall for populist conservative Roy Moore, Trump pleaded with Alabama voters to support his pro-American immigration agenda — which includes building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, deporting illegal aliens, punishing sanctuary cities that harbor criminal illegal aliens, opposing amnesty and reducing legal immigration levels to benefit American workers — by opposing Jones in the December 12 election....

Former President Barack Obama recorded a get-out-the-vote call for Democratic Alabama Senate candidate Doug Jones, the New York Times reports. The former president is just the latest prominent liberal to aid Jones’ special election campaign. Democratic New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker has campaigned in Alabama for Jones, while other Democratic senators have fundraised on Jones’ behalf. Jones’ campaign advisers were still unsure on Sunday night about whether they would actually use the taped call from Obama, amid fears that the former president’s endorsement could backfire and hurt Jones, according to the NYT .

Lookee, Lookee, Democrat, Doug Jones holds a rally in the major city of Alabama, Birmingham, with Democrat, Senator, Cory Booker and only about "100" people came. Looks like Cory Booker came down from New Jersey and no one cared. Shucks, POTUS, Trump packs 10,500 people into the arena in Pensacola, Florida to support Judge, Roy Moore, and add thousands of more folks stand outside the arena. Doug Jones...take a hint....bringing down Northeast Obamabot, Carpetbagger Black Racists, Booker & Patrick into Alabama ain't gonna do you much good as your you miserable turnout for them reveals. Alabama voters, (ALL) come this...

The Doug Jones for Senate Committee thought that circulating a racially charged flyer was a good way to win the black vote in Alabama in the upcoming special election against Judge Roy Moore. The move backfired. The flyer has been making the rounds on social media. It shows a young black man with a skeptical look on his face. “Think if a black man went after high school girls anyone would try to make him a senator?” it reads. The answer to the question is ‘maybe,’ but that’s not the point. Multiple people who got the flyer posted photos of...

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), a hard leftist Democrat senator from New Jersey who spent Saturday campaigning with fellow radical Doug Jones, went on a fake news tirade on Saturday night, pushing inaccurate information about GOP nominee for U.S. Senate Roy Moore and calling for President Donald Trump to resign. According to Vice News’s Alex Jaffe, who interviewed Booker at a Jones campaign event in the state of Alabama, Booker called for President Trump to follow Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) in resigning. Franken, this week, announced his forthcoming resignation from the Senate over allegations of sexual misconduct that he has admitted...

The Doug Jones choice of having Democrats, Senator, Cory Booker & ex-Massachusetts Governor, Patrick, IMHO, was not a wise one or campaign advancing choice. I realize that Jones could not get any name Democrats such as Obama, Clinton, Sanders, Warren, Pelosi, Schumer, Conyers, Franken, etc., to come down to Alabama to campaign with and for him...but, Booker & Patrick are the last two characters I would have introduced into this campaign two days before the election, These two Northeast "South" haters will only serve to diminish Candidate Doug Jones, as they bad mouth the good folks in Alabama, as Racist,...

Bunch of Bible-thumpin’ racists . . . That’s in essence how a Joy Reid guest has described Roy Moore’s supporters. On Reid’s MSNBC show this morning, Eric Guster, an Alabama lawyer, said: “Roy Moore’s coalition, they [are] in the rural counties. The Bible Belt. The people who love to go to church on Sunday. The ones who want to build a wall and keep brown people out of the United States.” Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

In his Alabama appearance for Roy Moore, Steve Bannon turned in an intellectually and morally putrid performance even by his standards. There is a partisan case for voting for Moore, which is simply that Republicans can’t afford to lose a Senate seat over the next three years and Moore’s failings must be ignored or rationalized away for the larger good of the party. This isn’t an elevated line of reasoning and is not obviously correct on its own terms. With Democrats throwing John Conyers and and Al Franken overboard, Senate Republicans would be welcoming into their ranks a potent symbol...

Late Wednesday, the Alabama Secretary of State’s office issued a statement claiming what it described as a “misleading” ad from the Birmingham-based pro-Doug Jones super PAC Highway 31 was removed by Google at its behest. According to the release, the office headed by John Merrill required “several intense discussions,” but resulted in Google removing the ad. “Secretary Merrill’s team contacted the Media and Advertising team at Google (YouTube’s parent company) and through several intense discussions and many references to Alabama State Law the team at Google felt the ad should be “disapproved” and that it was in violation of the...

Democrat Doug Jones is taking off the gloves with one week to go in the Alabama Senate race, blasting Republican opponent Roy Moore by suggesting he belongs in prison, not the Senate. In a blistering speech that his campaign had billed as a major address, Jones said the nine women accusing Moore of sexual impropriety when they were teenagers should be believed and that Moore was unfit for the job even before they came forward. "I damn sure believe that I have done my part to ensure that men who hurt little girls should go to jail and not the...

resident Trump may have thrown his support to GOP Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, but another Republican, Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake, made it clear he does not think Moore should be elected to fill Jeff Sessions' former seat. He wrote a $100 check to Moore's opponent, Democrat Doug Jones, and tweeted a photo, with a simple caption, "Country over Party." The Arizona senator has also tweeted, "Just to be clear. If the choice is between Roy Moore and a Democrat, I would run to the polling place to vote for the Democrat." After the Washington Post reported that several women...
