Deal with it.

How is a noncitizen resident of California supposed to "deal with it", exactly?

[Antonio the Sixth]

wow oh snapp u totally got me there

Sexual harassment is bad no matter who does it and to whom (sane but apparently abnormal).

He should resign, and every Democrat with a conscience should demand that he does.

I would rather put my trust on people in daily kos who have presented a clear case that the accusations are false, than the main stream media.

Assuming this is true... Frankenstein needs to switch to the GOP, where harrasmnent, is more acceptable or quit

I think we're beyond that point.

The Senate could expel him, but for various reasons I'm not sure Democrats want to do that

They should want to. Aside from being, you know, the right thing to do, it would also put Republicans on the spot if Moore wins so that they have to expel him as well.

Don't be naive. Republicans have nothing to lose by not following political norms. If that was true, we wouldn't have Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court right now. I could come up with a few more examples if you'd like to debate this point further.

Having a pedophile as a member of their Senate caucus is something a little different PR-wise than breaking procedural norms that no person outside of the Beltway ever cared about to begin with.

Not to Republicans, no. Conservatives are happy as long as liberals are mad.

Thank God the American electorate is not yet entirely made up only of "Democrats" and "Republicans" whose only goal in life is to screw the "other side" (though it does seem we're heading there fast).
