I'm sure some operative whipped this up.  The issue is whether or not Moore is being destroyed with lies or with truths.
Did you listen to his interview on Hannity's radio show? At worst, I would say he is being destroyed by mostly-truths due to how much time has passed since the alleged events. I cannot see the allegations being fabrications.
I saw it, and, no, I was not impressed with Moore's denial.  Not at all.

Steve Bannon Launches Breitbart Campaign to Discredit Roy Moore’s Accusers

Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon is using his website Breitbart News to run a discrediting campaign against the women who have come forward to accuse GOP Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore of pursuing sexual relationships with them when they were teenagers and he was an adult. The Washington insider publication Axios reports the website has shipped-off reporters Matt Boyle and Aaron Klein to Alabama where they aim to poke holes in the stories of Moore’s accusers. The two Bannon lackeys have already started their investigation into the women, as Klein published a story today suggesting one allegation could be false due to a previously unreported “key detail.”

It's clear that Bannon/Hannity and many conservatives have no problem with rape/pedophilia as long as the person is a conservative and will vote how they want.

You know what you need to do to be hired as a sign language interpreter for a campaign event?

Basically, be one of the five hearing people in <area> who knows ASL (and advertises it as a service), please have refrained from conducting an armed robbery within the statute of limitations, and don't be a campaign staffer for the other guys.

Like seriously, that's it. She could be a conservative Republican, for all we know.

new allegation is literally an attempted rape of 15 year old (now a Trump voter) who has his signed yearbook. Damning allegations. He is cooked. He will still win the election, I think if he doesn't pull out of the race.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/nov/13/roy-moore-threatens-to-sue-washington-post-sexual-misconduct-report

He reportedly told her, after a struggle and Moore was letting her go, that she was just a child and that he was a county attorney and nobody would believe her.

She has the yearbook that he signed, so he was definitely friendly enough to do that.

More from the newest accusation:

""The following morning my neck was black and blue + purple. In the days following I covered the bruising on my neck with makeup. I did not tell anyone about what would happen—I was scared. I felt that if I told anyone Mr Moore would do something to me or my family."


This evil predator needs to go.  Now.

There really is no doubt at this point. If Alabamans still vote for this man, well, then Alabama deserves every bit of its reputation.

He also has no defense that she looked older or anything since he SIGNED HER YEARBOOK! Calling her a child is also damning but the defenders will call that a lie, I'm sure.  I still think he may win the election.

Fifth accuser https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/13/us/politics/roy-moore-alabama-senate.html and now this.

Judge Roy Moore @MooreSenate
The person who should step aside is @SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell. He has failed conservatives and must be replaced. #DrainTheSwamp
12:40 PM - Nov 13, 2017

"“I tried fighting him off, while yelling at him to stop, but instead of stopping, he began squeezing my neck attempting to force my head onto his crotch,” Ms. Nelson said in a statement she issued at the news conference. She said Mr. Moore warned her that “no one will believe you” if she told anyone about the encounter in his car."

Moore is a rapist and a pedo but muh wall muh immigration muh trade dealz (and muh capital gains taxes). Then again, I'm an enormous hypocrite since I literally backed a corrupt presidential candidate in France because of tax cuts and labour market deregulation Tongue.

The governor has made only indications that she has no plans at this time to postpone the election. That obviously could change with Moore being fixed on the ballot for the December 12th election and at this rate probably blowing the election.

So does anyone know the last day the governor can still postpone the election currently set for December 12th? I assume she can't legally do it, say, the day before hand.

Until/unless Roy Moore is forced out of the race, I can't don a blue avatar with any dignity.


The Republican Party has hit a moral low. Let's just hope it's not a bottomless pit.

Absentee and overseas voters have already been casting ballots, I'm not sure what Alabama law actually says but I don't see how they would be allowed to change the date. If it's too late to change the ballot I would assume it's also too late to change the ballot day, no? At the very least cancelling an election this late in the game almost certainly runs afoul of MOVE or the Uniformed And Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act

Big time. Though if Trump knew just what a pussy grabber Moore really was he might have backed him all along.

Rapin' Roy needs to go.

Another angle is that he purposely signed the yearbook the way he did with DA as an intimidation tactic... like "you just traaah goin' tuh the cops, sweetie pah"
