Alabama elections are always crap shoots. A current theory among political pundits is that if Roy Moore, hated by many both conservative and liberal, wins the Republican nomination, a Democrat will win the general election. It could happen.
So who's the best in the Democratic field. We pick Doug Jones or Robert Kennedy Jr. Both have a head on their shoulders and seemingly care about the state.
Our, ahem, chief Democratic advisor tells us he's voting for Doug Jones. We're predicting a runoff with Jones and (probably) Kennedy. If Moore should win the Republican primary, let's hope a strong Democratic candidate can beat him.

Did you hear about the first UNA football scrimmage of the season yesterday? Did they have a fistfight? No...they had five fistfights. If these guys can't refrain from hitting their own team, how many penalties will the university be seeing this season?
What is wrong with UNA?

So far the university hasn't gotten any good press over its "sexual misconduct" press release. Sexual misconduct? That's when a pimply faced boy attempts to accidentally on purpose touch his date's breasts as he pretends to assist her with buckling her seat belt. Sexual misconduct is slapping a co-worker on the backside. Sexual misconduct is looking at porn on the office computer.
Rape is just slightly more than "sexual misconduct." No wonder the majority of our mail is in favor of riding Kenneth Kitts and David Shields out of town on a barbed wire stretcher.
If you look at polling, Moore leads in most polls (over the past four weeks) by five to ten points. There is one single poll showing Strange ahead (in recent weeks). Mo, is out of this...likely not to clear more than 20-percent.
ReplyDeleteOn the Democratic side, the two polls which used 2,000 to 3,000 people...showed Robert Kennedy ahead. Oddly, the poll with only 164 people...showed Doug Jones ahead.
I would offer the opinion that if this is a race of Moore and Kennedy...less than 40-percent of the registered public will show up to vote in that election, and Moore will win. It's a lousy situation but the deck got stacked that way. Maybe our topic ought to be...if Strange doesn't win...does he come back and run for Governor in 2018, against Jones?
