Assuming Jones is finally declared the winner (Moore has vowed to fight on, which could portend possible electoral shenanigans), some reports have suggested that McConnell may work to delay Jones’ seating in the Senate until after the tax bill vote. So I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s pressure from Congressional Republicans (and money from their owners) for Alabama officials to drag out certifying the results as long as possible.
I wonder if Herr Drumpf will start tweeting about illegal alien voting in the Alabama election. Or does it only matter to him when the popular vote casts doubt on his own mandate?
Brian is absolutely right…. even though this very slim victory was good for the nation, we Democrats still have a helluva lot of work to do to revamp the party’s image to be more obviously fully inclusive of ALL folks. If we do not really work hard to have a clearer message where we take control of how our party is perceived…. we will still be at grave risk for a lot of horrendous losses.

Moore lost because he was overconfident and could not fake sincere empathy.

Jordon Klepper called it (last night on “The Opposition”), “Doug Jones Cheated and Stole the Election!”
