(25,183 posts)who the senators are from Alabama in eleven months. There will be a seeming eternity of news cycles between the last gasp of the GOP voting to seat Moore and November 6, 2018. Bright shiny objects will come into view, hover for a few moments, then disappear without a trace. Grab a newspaper or national news magazine from six months ago, and see how many of the big stories there are even a flicker on the screen today.
The American public has a short attention span because the news media feeds them that way.

(31,261 posts)Moore winning buttress Democrats in red states. How will republicans attack those Democrats on moral issues when they have a pedophile seated in the Senate and White House.

(21,137 posts)1% write in. Its already programmed ready to go. Just like that 1% margin in all those swing states that were off statistically. The media has their script already it was a squeaky win but Alabama is a red state! A week later other news will distract from us that a known pedophile is in the senate.

(21,137 posts)Rethugs have no integrity and will fight to win by any means necessary. Even if they have to lie,
Steal and cheat.
But I remember reading that Democrats resorted to dirty tricks in the 50s and 60s stuffing ballot boxes. In the past they werent so squeaky clean. But todays rethugs are masters of cheating way and beyond what the Dems did. To me the foreogn inference is the lowest of Love.
