I think what sunk him was his appearance on Hannity. When Moore was asked about the “accusations” he had the same “deer in the headlights” look that Ted Kennedy did back in 1976 when Dan Blather asked him why he wanted to be president!

Let's say you were going onto Hannity's show to answer claims that you molested a 14 year old girl. Hannity then immediately hits you with "If you admit to dating 18 year old women, we will consider you guilty of molesting a 14 year old girl, and attempting to rape a 16 year old girl."

And you know you dated 18 year old women.

Yes, it would make most any man feel as if they were a deer caught in the headlights.

I heard the Hannity interview. That is exactly how he framed the debate. Moore admits to dating teenagers, Hannity was going to regard the allegation that he molested a 14 year old as true.

Two different things, and Hannity lumped them together. He put Moore into an unwinnable situation.

Moore or his people should have innocuous stock answers for both or he shouldn’t have gone on the show. It doesn’t make any difference whose show, you have to have answers to those types of things and the ability to think on your feet to frame them. You don’t have answers, don’t run. You can’t frame the answers properly , again don’t run! He was a poor candidate, probably way over confident. He was a known commodity to the Alabama voter and clearly he couldn’t energize them. I am tired of the excuses for him!
