Alabama newspaper reports same story as "New Yorker." For Alabama GOP voters who

live in the right wing media bubble, a report in a local newspaper will have far more influence than a story in a mag associated with New York liberals.

AND the newspaper story adds more creepy Moore behavior details!

"Gadsden locals say Moore's predatory behavior at mall, restaurants not a secret"

https://articles.al.com/news/index.ssf/2017/11/gadsden_residents_say_moores_b.amp

snip

Another former waitress, Victoria Beverstock, told AL.com today that she was 20 years old and working at The Poor House restaurant in 1992 when Moore came in a few times a week to eat and do paperwork.

She said he made her and the other waitresses uncomfortable by staring at them and flirting.

"He watched us girls quite openly," said Beverstock. "His eyes crawled over our shirts and our backsides. He was so open about it that I would try and handle his order as quickly as possible.

"When you didn't smile and flirt back with him, give him an opening, he became rude and demanding," she said.

turn on 'ya, it can't be good.

It does look like the pressure is rising on "The Judge" - and that can't be a good thing for him.

Here's hoping that truth, justice, and sanity will prevail!

Because with all this garbage he won't win but he'll still draw enough of Trump's dead head votes to prevent the GOP from winning the seat

...and I don't put anything past the Rs in Alabama (a state I lived in for much of my young life), his name stays on the ballot, even if he doesn't. Should the AL Republican party decertify hin, any votes he gets won't be counted. I don't expect that to happen, but it's possible.

He said that because he was embarrassed that his candidate was losing to Moore.

And he said that while speakng at a rally FOR Strange!

Did he dress in that stupid cowboy outfit then? I know it's hard to believe a man who dresses like a 6yo at a birthday party wouldn't have pedophilia issues.

I'm starting to feel like Saki's Conradin watching with resignation while his evil cousin, Mrs. De Ropp, goes into the shed to take away his pet, and thus destroy his imaginary God, Sredni Vashtar. His vain hopes slowly gain by every passing minute that she doesn't emerge from the shed. He rejoices when, against all expectations, she never does.

40 years down to 25. It will keep dropping. Leopards don't change their spots.
