You're right. I wish I had the power to deport most of them to a island somewhere with no food.

I am The Wrench in all your plans....
These cacs are beyond sick....
knowingly CAPING for a man who will literally fukk their child as long as he's a republican it's ok...
I know I should be, but I'm actually kind of surprised. So many Conservative voters have no moral compass despite their claims to be the party of family values.
Donald laid the blueprint for republicans to just bury their heads in the sand in the face of allegations like these. I was naively surprised that conservatives still voted him into office and I should no better than to be surprised again.
I keep wanting to give people the benefit of the doubt but holy shyt.
Shouldn't be (if you're from the south). As long as you espouse that rhetoric, these "family values" religious conservatives will ride with you, they don't say it out loud, but they will always ride with the home team. Add in that this is the fake news era.
I wouldn't be surprised if dude wins by double digits. All them polls showing that Jones was barely winning should be the writing on the wall.

Brehs in here like "
I can't believe Roy Moore is going to win!". 
Who the hell did you think all those racist white rednecks were going to vote for? Doug Jones. Roy Moore is the white supremacist candidate. He's the person who will put white people in Alabama needs and desires before everyone else, that's who the majority of white people will vote for. Same with Trump and Hillary and it will be the same with Trump and whoever he faces in 2020.

Remember the KKK was started by poor Southern whites not against the elites who were taking advantage of them but to make sure blacks knew their place instead of fighting with minorities against those elites.

Nah. It would probably incentivize them to kamikaze whatever they can before losing power.This could kill tax reform
The major thing they learned during the Obama years is just to hold the government hostage at the state and local level which they still control.
The only thing Jones winning will do is signal they are in trouble in reliable red districts like what happened in Virginia

So say Jones miraculously won, he gets sworn in a few days later. That's one vote taken away... after the conference committee both the House and Senate have to vote again.
I agree with you but if the conference committee doesn't get things done quickly, it will get ugly for the passage of the bill. The House and Senate have significant differences and the Senate has to stay within the reconciliation rules.
Plus they have to vote on the final bill again.
We're basically at halftime on this and they have a like a 10 point lead.
