Senate Republicans are stepping up pressure on Roy Moore to withdraw from the Alabama Senate race after new sexual misconduct allegations on Monday, but many stopped well short of pledging to expel him if he wins the special election next month.

Republican are wrestling with what to do about the conservative candidate in the wake of a bombshell report about Moore making sexual advances toward teenage girls, and a fifth woman coming forward on Monday who said he sexually assaulted her when she was 16.

There was more evidence against Ted Cruz on Amanda Carpenter’s twitter than we have seen so far against Roy Moore.

Republicans? What about Democrats? What are they wrestling with? Can’t be one of their own on actual trial for corruption which has not been reported at all,so I would love to here from the hypocrites on this one.
I won’t hold my breath because the democrats are known to be reprobates and this is normal behaviour for them,so no surprises there

The gop faction of the uniparty is bound and determined to lose in 2018. They prefer being in the “loyal opposition” where they don’t actually have to do much other than “reach across the aisle.”

Oh and split up their share of the loot.

Politics is a scam and we’re suckers for playing.

“The Left? This a GOPE hit.”

Well, it was Dr. Evil’s WaPo that ran the story and apparently paid the money to coax the women to come forth. But I wholeheartedly agree that McConnell et al. completely support the attack.

Bush 31 accused of assaulting 16 yr old in 2003
http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/13/politics/george-hw-bush-groping-allegation/index.html

Being ignored by LSM, as as Mendez (D) over a non incident 40+yrs ago that would/should have been brought froward, when Moore was running against Toxic Mitch’s pet poodle. GOPe establishment can’t stand to have a Constitutional, Conservative, Real Christian in the US Senate, it would upset their RINO balance.
