Reports keep rolling in. A high schooler declined to give her phone number to a then 30-year-old Roy Moore. What did he do? Called the principal who got the girl out of trig class to talk to him.

Some factual corrections.
First, some of Bill Clinton's accusers do assert that it was not consensual and in Broaderick's case even that it was rape.
Second, as for Moore, rape is not the legal term for what Moore admits to nor is he accused of it.
Third, I don't support either Moore or Trump, both are unworthy, so I'm not sure who you're referring to but I do feel that when people are impugning the character of others their own character becomes fair game.

That story is incomplete. It doesn’t provide the exculpatory evidence of the letter behind his name.

From UVa's Center for Politics:
http://www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/
The following is from the story and is related to polling for the race:
" Polls, already close before the really bad stories about Moore began appearing about a week ago, seem to have tightened further, with Jones even leading in some. For instance, Politico’s Alex Isenstadt reported on Wednesday that the National Republican Senatorial Committee — no friend of Moore’s even before the sexual misconduct stories broke, to be sure — has Moore down 51%-39% to Jones in its polling. However, we’re not sure how useful polls will be in this race: Anticipating turnout in a special election like this is very hard. What we do know is 1.) Last week’s elections and special elections conducted throughout the year have shown high levels of Democratic enthusiasm in both liberal and conservative jurisdictions; 2.) Jones is likely to have a big resource advantage in this race — he’s already outspent Moore 11-to-one on TV ads, according to Advertising Analytics — with national Republicans staying away from Moore; and 3.) Moore may have trouble preventing poor Republican turnout given his horribly damaged candidacy. "

Not this idiot.kmacdonald said:
I don't put a lot of faith in that poll though. It's certainly an outlier, with no information on methodology available as far as I can tell. Could be a red herring put out by establishment Republicans that fear for the future of the Party.

So, a poll indicating Moore is losing is to be believed.kmacdonald said:
There are some who point to polling last November which predicted a different outcome in the Presidential race.
Principles and beliefs are malleable.
Nice!

Don't trust that poll. In answering a poll, a Moore voter would have to admit to someone else that they are a Moore voter. It is the age-old problem with any market research - asking people to talk about about their near-future behavior will not accurately predict their near-future behavior. I believe the same thing happened with polls in the general election last year.

Well, thankfully we have the 19th Amendment. Women will have a lot to say at the polls me think. That’s what gives me hope for an Alabama miracle.

Wishful thinking - Trump has a lot of female supporters.
Politically, women overall don't seem to be quite as stupid as men but .......

You don't come from around here, do ya?
Around here, women do what their daddy tells 'em to do, until they get hitched to second cousin Cletus, then they does what Cletus says to do.

Not as blindly partisan as your own.
I don't have a problem with people learning the truth. I do have a problem with liars. How many times has this type of accusation been proven false?
Obviously you didn't read my full post. Investigate, charge and bring to trial. If proven guilty the man can be removed from office. Also, I noted that this is just as likely a Republican effort as it is a Democrat.
Read before you run your mouth.
