Roy Moore Debacle Ended
Just saw a meme of Forrest Gump. "Isn't is strange how all the Roy Moore accusers disappeared after the election?" I liked it. Not because I think he's guiltless, but because of the media nonsense. I mean, seriously, this all came out conveniently after there wasn't legally time to change to a different candidate in Alabama. This should have come out in the primary. The other Republicans, Mo Brooks and Luther Strange, probably knew about it but were following Reagan's adage, Thou Shalt Not Speak Ill of Another Republican. They should have broken it to protect the people, the process, and the party from a terrible candidate.
And Moore was a terrible candidate. He's weird, ideological, not aware of real laws, perhaps a Dixiecrat, even if he wasn't a predator. We are better off without him in the Senate. But that doesn't mean there weren't loads of dirty politics in this whole thing. It all stinks.
The Democrat will get easily beaten in a few years. Alabama is not going to keep a Democrat in the Senate long.
Maybe this will wake up the Republicans. Maybe this will make the Senate start to work together. Heaven forbid they do their jobs.
Will there be a rush to the Dem party in November 2018? Maybe. But if the economy is good, maybe not. That's a gamble. Everything looks good on paper, stock market and all that, but I feel like I should cash in my IRAs just in case it all goes bust from too much.
