So DO SOMETHING to help Jones beat Moore ...

Last edited Sun Nov 12, 2017, 09:03 PM - Edit history (1)

I have emailed the AL chamber of Commerce to let them know that I will not visit AL and that NONE of my money will ever go to AL if they elect Moore.

I posted comment on an AL newspaper comment section with a link to an article on Moore

Here's that link ... http://www.nationalreview.com/article/453632/roy-moore-defenders-disgusting?utm_source=PANTHEON_STRIPPED&utm_medium=PANTHEON_STRIPPED

The most recent poll out gives Jones a lead. Other polls point to Moore's support dropping. It would sure help matters if Jones could get some help from the DU community so his momentum can stick for the next month.

Of another Ossoff situation. "Outside agitators" and all of that. A whole bunch of national attention on a race that might bring out unenthusiastic Republicans in a year made for angry, enthusiastic Democrats.

I can see a whole bunch of ten dollar donations being put in an attack as as:

"Did you know that 80% of Jones's donations come from out of state?"

Insert scary dramatic sound effect.

"On December 12th, send a message to limousine liberals from California and vote for His Holiness The Most Exalted Judge Roy 'Young'uns' Moore."

Then, in a rapid, almost auctioneer voice:

"This message brought to you by the Technically-It's-Not-Illegal Committee to Elect Roy Moore SuperPAC and is funded entirely by semi-anonymous donors and not the Roy Moore campaign.""

tosh

I live close enough to the Alabama border that no one ever dare call me an "outside agitator".
