Cspan reported Ala. Gov. Riley's lead increased after Moore announcement.
I was thrilled to hear this morning on cspan, from Chuck Todd I think, say that they've been watching the Ala. Gov. race which appeared to be tied, but after Roy Moore announced that he was running for sure, Gov. Riley's lead jumped to 44% v/s Moore's at 25%.

2. You should care who wins! Moore was a judge who was
stripped of his spot on the Fed. bench for refusing to obey a Fed. order! I know lots of Ala. folks are righties, but Moore is way off the edge! I think it's important that the people realize there is even a line they don't believe should be crossed!

4. he was a state supreme court judge
he wasn't a federal judge

and the bloodier the primary, the more it helps the Democratic nominee

the Republican base will be split and the Democrats can retake the governor's office
