The swamp really fears Judge Roy Moore!
This article is full of shot from the hip analysis even for RINOs. The most likely scenario is he wins, is seated, and he rocks the boat and makes life difficult for the swamp.
Or 8, Roy gets elected, and serves in the senate helping to pass MAGA legislation, while not dropping the fight against the charges. Gloria Allred gets disbarred, and lawyers will think long and hard about pulling that kind of crap in future elections.
Like all those hearings they had for Bob Menéndez? Oh wait...
Scenario 7:
If Moore stays in, wins, and is sworn in as a United States Senator, he could then resign the day after Christmas and the Republican Governor of Alabama could appoint pro-life pro-Trump Mo Brooks to the United States Senate.
That is an Everybody Wins scenario.
How can you expel someone who is duly elected? All this is really about Moore being a Christian and a constitutionalist. They don’t want anyone telling them they’re corrupt and that they’re failing the Constitution.
Yep. Moore wins and then wins again in 2 years.
Allred is arrested for lying and interference with a federal election.
What a silly article.
Reminds me of the NeverTrumpers hoping Trump would lose - and give Hillary Clinton 2 or 3 SCOTUS picks. Bunch of losers.
8. Congressional list of abusers and payoffs is made public. Half a dozen sitting Senators resign amid the scandal of the details of their sexcapades.
Lots of hand wringing
Stupid me. I started to read the article before noting it was written by Byron York, who works really hard trying to make you think he’s thinking. He’s a RINO propagandist disguised as a conservative writer and pundit who misses the point a lot.

The communist political SMEAR is not going to win the day anymore!
I think the Senate Ethics Committee is going to be pretty busy burying other scandals to focus on Moore for a while.
The Committee is a joke.
Roy Moore for majority leader
Why is 5 a bad scenario?
Scenario 6 is more likely than that, and it's chances hover somewhere between zilch and none. Scenario 5 is my prediction for what actually happens.
“What about 7, Roy gets elected, helps pass the Trump agenda then gets reelected as the Republicans increase majorities in both House and Senate thanks to growing economy and glow of prosperity? ”
Yeah. What about that?
For National Review, it is always June 2015.
COMMENTS ON THE ABOVE:
1) “Moore withdraws from the race.” Correct...all that a write-in will do is split the Republican vote. Not a prayer of winning - Democrat Victory.
2) “The governor of Alabama changes election day.” Correct again...Moore still may still wind up on the ticket, but if not Moore, more Republicans in Alabama will stay home in protest than will vote - Democrat Victory.
3) “Moore stays in the race with a GOP write-in challenger.” Same as #1...Democrat Victory. If Moore’s name is there, he’ll get a huge number of votes, but he’ll only win if his name is the ONLY Republican. To run anyone else is simply throwing the election to the Democrat.
4) Moore wins, and the Senate GOP tries to expel him. Not as bad, as that likely keeps the seat Republican, which to me is actually more important than the particular person there. But I do agree, horrible precedent, if they put him on trial without any evidence beyond a dozen or so leftists who don’t want him in the Senate regardless, what’s to stop this from happening over and over.
5) Moore wins, and the Senate GOP does not try to expel him. This is a GREAT OUTCOME - it means that the next time Gloria rounds up a bunch of Democrats, they will NOT be permitted to flip an election, just on their word.
6) Doug Jones wins. Obviously just as bad as the earlier scenarios...but to a lot of people claiming to be Republicans, it is preferable to Trump being able to seat judges.
Six scenarios. For the GOP, FOUR bad scenarios, and TWO good scenarios. This is their BIG CHANCE, let’s see if they get it right (so far, the Alabama GOP, Governor Ivey, and Trump have it right...so all good signs).
The guy sounds like some of the FReepers who can only see the bad what-ifs and ignores all the good/potential good.
Must suck to live like that.
4 or 5 are the most likely with the most likely being he is seated and a ethics investigation is started immediately
