Roy Moore Says He Might Run For Alabama Governor

[brooklynite]

Source: Talking Points Memo

Roy Moore refuses to go away.

The former Alabama judge and dumpster fire of a Senate candidate sent out a statement on Thursday saying that he might run for statewide office in Alabama once again.

“If the opportunity arises to make a difference, I will have no reluctance to again run for political office, including that of Governor,” he said in a statement.

Those remarks come after Moore’s Senate bid went down in flames last fall amidst accusations from multiple women of sexual misconduct — including many who said the incidents took place when they were teenagers.

1. more like he will use that opportunity to raise more campaign money

in order to pay for the previous fiasco. There will be suckers who will contribute.

[olegramps]

12. I think that he would be a great choice for the racist rat hole. They deserve the very worst.

[sakabatou]

2. I feel sick

[sprinkleeninow]

3. Ut oh, where's my barf bag.....

[Leghorn21]

4. Fine. Run all you want.

just leave Sassy the fuck out of it

[yonder]

5. I agree.

Interestingly, my first thought was for that poor horse too.

[Dave Starsky]

16. I still think about that incident today.

That guy had no business trying to ride that horse. He obviously didn't know what the fuck he was doing. If he was trying to impress voters with his "cowboyness", he failed.

[George II]

6. Considering the fact that the current governor is a woman, I think he said....

....that he might run AFTER the Alabama governor.

[onenote]

7. She's three years older than he is, so there is no way he would do that.

She'd need to be about 60 years younger than she is.

[George II]

8. You're right, but maybe she has a grand daughter?

[onenote]

9. Or great grand daughter.

[musette_sf]

10. I am reminded of a Dan Hicks gig years ago

in which he punctuated each chorus of "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away" with a jaunty "M*therfvcker".

(If only ole Roy had been interested in the mothers instead of the daughters....)

[Haggis for Breakfast]

20. Or

My personal favorite - How can I kiss you goodbye if you won't take your tongue out of my mouth ?

[musette_sf]

21. or as the late Cynthia Heimel put it:

"Get Your Tongue Out Of My Mouth, I'm Kissing You Good-Bye"

[Orange Free State]

11. Roy Moore is the Herpes Simplex 2 of American Politics

Painful, unwanted, embarrassing, no cure, and he comes back just when you think he’s gone for good.

[Mz Pip]

13. If Moore is who Alabama chooses

then they get what they deserve.

[sarcasmo]

14. Will Trigger be at the Governor's mansion?

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

15. For people who tout the free market, Repugs sure love sucking that government teat.

I guess governor is the only office Moore hasn't failed at yet.

[Initech]

17. Really? He'll get destroyed again.

[Glimmer of Hope]

18. Good grief. Just go away.

[Rustyeye77]

19. Alabama.... where the fun never stops.

[BigOleDummy]

22. The GOP Zombies are

…… coming back from the grave. Moore in Alabama. Arpaio In Arizona. The two posterboys for the need for redistricting.

[GulfCoast66]

24. I agree about the redistricting thing

But Moore is thinking about governor and Arpaio for Senate. Both are statewide races and have no districts.

[MGKrebs]

23. Good. Run a halfway decent Dem and maybe we pick that up too.

[ck4829]

25. All these years and still hasn't learned that "no means no"

[RandySF]

26. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
