Title: Poll: Roy Moore zooms to commanding lead in Alabama’s Senate race

In the special election for Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat, Judge Roy Moore is the clear front-runner.

Moore holds a commanding 10-point lead over incumbent Senator Luther Strange, according to a poll conducted by potential primary challenger Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala. Roy Moore leads the race with 30 percent, followed by Strange at 20 percent, and Rep. Brooks in “the low double-digits.”

Strange was appointed to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ former Senate seat by disgraced former Gov. Robert Bentley before he resigned last month. Many see the appointment as a corrupt deal struck between a governor, Bentley, mired in scandal and the state attorney general, Strange, prosecuting him.

Gov. Kay Ivey, Bentley’s successor, called for an early special primary election on Aug. 18 followed by a runoff on September 26 and a general election on December 12.

Moore’s candidacy in Alabama is strong. Many Alabamians see Moore – the former chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court – as a martyr for the social conservative cause after he was removed from office for directing state probate judges not to issue marriage licenses to homosexual couples.

"I have done my duty under the laws of this state to stand for the undeniable truth that God ordained marriage as the union of one man and one woman," Moore said during the press conference in front of the state capitol after the Alabama Supreme Court upheld the decision to remove Moore from the court.

The Washington establishment is backing Senator Strange for reelection. McConnell allies in the National Republican Senatorial Committee are threatening potential primary challengers to Strange to dissuade them from running.

"We have made it very clear from the beginning that Sen. Luther Strange would be treated as an incumbent," NRSC spokeswoman Katie Martin reportedly told Politico. "It has also been a clear policy that we will not use vendors who work against our incumbents."

Despite the NRSC’s threats, the polling shows that there is a race in Alabama, and the conservative challenger has a clear shot at winning.

Strange was appointed to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ former Senate seat by disgraced former Gov. Robert Bentley before he resigned last month. Many see the appointment as a corrupt deal struck between a governor, Bentley, mired in scandal and the state attorney general, Strange, prosecuting him.
. . .
"We have made it very clear from the beginning that Sen. Luther Strange would be treated as an incumbent," NRSC spokeswoman Katie Martin reportedly told Politico. "It has also been a clear policy that we will not use vendors who work against our incumbents."

They hate Moore and the GOPe is closing ranks to defeat him.

Why they want this corrupt former AG in the Senate is beyond me.

OTOH, they do hate Moore because he would be as big a bull-in-a-china-shop as Ted Cruz is.

A few days back on AL.com:

When I talked to him Monday, state Senate Pro Tem Del Marsh said he isn't ready yet to announce his political intentions, but he had already selected a national political firm to run a campaign, just in case. If he runs for United States Senate in a special election later this year, he will have to declare his candidacy before the qualifying deadline on May 17.

Time is precious.

But about a week ago, he says, that firm called to let him know they couldn't run his campaign, after all. When Marsh asked them why, they explained that they could suffer political retaliation.

State Rep. Ed Henry says he's run into the same problems.

"It is evident that Washington, D.C., controls Washington, D.C.," Henry said. "The people of Alabama or any other state have very little influence on these races."

As stories go, this one might should come with a tinfoil hat, except that it's true.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee has warned national political consulting firms to stay away from anyone challenging Luther Strange.

It makes no difference to them that Strange has only been in Washington a couple of months.

It doesn't matter that Strange was appointed to the office by Robert Bentley, a widely unpopular governor who was forced from office, to cheers from across the state.

It matters not that Strange solicited that appointment from Bentley while his office had an open investigation into the governor and his staff.

The NRSC is making no secret about it. Strange is, in their book, an incumbent, and just like any other Washington insider, he is entitled to the benefits and privileges that club membership confers.

"We have made it very clear from the beginning that Sen. Luther Strange would be treated as an incumbent," NRSC spokeswoman Katie Martin told Politico. "It has also been a clear policy that we will not use vendors who work against our incumbents."

Got that? If a firm works for Marsh, Henry, Roy Moore or anyone else who might jump in, then they're blackballed. With 33 Senate races on the ballot in 2018, with about half of those expected to be competitive, getting cut out of 2018 is an existential threat for these consultants, and a risk that most will refuse to take.

The NRSC's threat to campaign consultants follows reports that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell personally asked Gov. Kay Ivey not to schedule a special election to replace Jeff Sessions until 2018.

Meanwhile, Strange already has $763,612 in his campaign account, while his opponents will have to catch up with him $2,700 at a time, the maximum contribution allowed under federal campaign law.

And it's important to understand that these political consulting firms are instrumental not for how to spend campaign money, but raising it. They're the guys with the lists of donors and the secret passageways around campaign finance restrictions. Without one of these teams on your side, a candidate can die in the desert.

And right now, Strange's D.C. supporters are cutting Alabama candidates off from this kind of help. Because God help us if we ever had a fair fight.

This is how the power of incumbency works, and it's also how democracy rots, because it deprives voters of the thing they need for this system to work -- a choice.

Moore did install his own private 2.5-ton 10 commandments monument in the state judicial building with no authorization. So he is more than a little flaky. You just aren't allowed to install your own religious brick-a-brac in state buildings on a personal whim or as a political tactic.

So I guess this is a runoff between the Flake (Moore) and the Fluke (Strange).

Given how Alabama is, I'd bet on the Flake to win easily. No one except the GOPe will be shedding any tears over Strange losing this seat he obtained so corruptly, almost certainly by blackmailing a corrupt AL governor who he was investigating at the time.

Strange would have had a better chance if the GOPe wasn't backing him so much. Alabama voters will (rightly) perceive that the Swamp is trying to shove a corrupt former A.G. down their throats.

Gee, are you single, AKA? We could be so happy together. My digestive tract is aching to be filled with your man-love. Can't we exchange diseases like any other couple? LOL

Yes, it is flaky for judges to put up 2.5-ton religious monuments inside state judicial buildings. If you want to do something like that, run for the legislature or for governor and pass a law to authorize it. Crackpot judges don't get to just install their own personal monuments on state property.

Moore is a weirdo and a very poor choice as a judge, whether you agree with the outcomes in any particular case that he heard. But he will probably win that senate seat in a landslide after the GOPe carries out a full character assassination that will only cement his already-strong support in AL. That doesn't make him a good choice, just a very likely winner.

I will be watching this race. I expect the GOPe will pull out all the stops and campaign against Moore in much the same way they campaigned against David Duke when he tried to run for senate in Lousiana. In that instance, the GOPe behaved the same way they are now treating Moore and eventually urged Republicans to vote against Duke and endorsed Duke's Dem opponent so they could stop Duke.

I have to wonder whether Trump will pick a side in the Alabama race or (wisely) stay out of it completely.

Would you approve of allowing the chief justice of the state of California (or New York) to install their own monuments to every left-wing cause they favor?

This whole bit about having the ten commandments in statehouses and courthouses dates back to the late Fifties, when Cecil B. DeMille cooked it up as a promotional scheme for his movie which was called ... The Ten Commandments.

Chron.com: 'Ten Commandments' went from film to stone

DeMille was already dead by the time his PR patsies, the Fraternal Order of Eagles, ramped up their Ten Commandments monument distribution for parks and courthouses and other city/state properties. But then, how many Texans today will proudly recite "Don't mess with Texas" as a semi-threat without knowing that it was actually just an anti-littering slogan put on signs on a rural stretch of northeastern Texas highway during Lady Bird Johnson's anti-littering jihad?

Of course, all of this mostly illustrates how culturally retarded America really is.

Moore:

"I have done my duty under the laws of this state to stand for the undeniable truth that God ordained marriage as the union of one man and one woman," he said. "I know and I think you do, too, that the foundations of the fabric of our country are being shaken tremendously.

"Our families are being crippled by divorce and abortion. Our sacred institution of marriage has been destroyed by the Supreme Court. Our rights and liberties are in jeopardy.

"What I did, I did for the people of Alabama. I stood up for the Constitution. I stood up for God. The great majority of the people of this state believe in God."

That’s not being weird!

So if Moore goes to the Senate and offers a bill to ban divorce (and re-marriage), you would support that?

Some of these things only sound good until you actually follow them to their inevitable conclusion.

I think Moore is a phony and a hypocrite who has spent quite a number of years grandstanding himself in the public eye. And I think he is about to be rewarded for it by the voters of Alabama.

OTOH, Luther Strange is a creature of the Swamp Things in the Beltway (known as the GOPe) and got his position by blackmailing a corrupt governor a month before Governor Naughty Pants got run out of orifice.

So Moore vs. Strange is a choice but it's still a bad choice IMO.

By the way, this "religious" monument was also covered with quotes from the Declaration of Independence, the national anthem, and various Founding Fathers.

If the mere presence of the Ten Commandments makes this a "religious monument", then I assume you'd describe Elizabeth Warren as a Cherokee Indian.

And just a “in God We Trust” appears on the facade of the U.S. Supreme Court building, I don’t feel that Moore placing the Ten Commandments in the court building violated the Constitution.

“The National Motto, ‘In God We Trust,’ appears in the the House and Senate Chambers and yet Moore could not place a monument of the Ten Commandments in the Alabama Supreme Court building.

But who is the hypocrite just to call someone a hypocrite because they don’t agree with him?

Nope.

If Moore is so dead-set against divorce, why didn't he find a case to rule against divorce entirely in the state of Alabama? He certainly could have. But he didn't.

That's called hypocrisy.

He just says these things. Actually do something about it? Not much.

His history of grandstanding doesn't inspire much confidence.

"I'll stand for the rights and liberties of the people," Moore said while announcing his intent to run at the Alabama statehouse in Montgomery. "My position has always been God first, family then country.

That makes Moore a weirdo?

It makes him a traitor that puts America 3rd.

Just as as federal district court found printing “In God We Trust” on legal tender does not violate the Constitution….I don’t feel that Moore placing the Ten Commandments in the court building violated the Constitution.

I wouldn't object to Moore placing his wooden wall plaque on his own courtroom wall. That's how all this began, back in the Nineties (as I recall it).

It's when he became chief justice and unilaterally placed a 2.5-ton granite monument in the rotunda of Alabama's state judicial building that he clearly crossed the line.

Monuments on state property are the business of the legislature, not a judge who sneaks it in under the cover of night, not even knowing whether the building's floor could support such a heavy stone piece. Then his allies at Coral Ridge Ministries (who funded it) took video of this illegal installation and sold DVDs to make money off it. Kinda like how DeMille got the F.O.E. to fund all those 10 commandments plaques and monuments around the country as a promotional for his movie.

This is the kind of thing that caused Roy Moore to be removed as chief justice. After he grandstanded his way back on to the state court in 2013, his pay was suspended in 2016. And then he resigned from the court last month, facing a half-dozen ethics charges (which he had already lost) so he could run for Senate.

I'm surprised Moore still has a law license. I expect the GOPe will try to find a way to go after that as well, probably during the upcoming campaign.

I think Moore is a phony and a hypocrite who has spent quite a number of years grandstanding himself in the public eye. And I think he is about to be rewarded for it by the voters of Alabama.

OTOH, Luther Strange is a creature of the Swamp Things in the Beltway (known as the GOPe) and got his position by blackmailing a corrupt governor a month before Governor Naughty Pants got run out of orifice.

So Moore vs. Strange is a choice but it's still a bad choice IMO.

I still maintain that there should be a box to mark on every ballot that has "none of the above",and that every time "None of the above" wins,there should immediately be another election with all new candidates (mandatory) that is paid for in full by the part coffers to the parties that backed a candidate in the first election. NO PUBLIC MONEY.

That would quickly guarantee better candidates than "loser number 1" and "loser number 2'.

Because someone does good doesn't mean you have to let someone do evil.

Can you comprehend that simple concept?

Can YOU comprehend "Equal Justice for ALL"?

There is no such thing as divorce.

If you divorce your wife and you "mary" another you are committing adultery.

What color is the sky on your home planet?

"Marriage" and "divorce" are civil legalities.

Or are you going to try to claim you paid GAWD for your marriage license?

"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."

(Spuriously) attributed to Sinclair Lewis.

Moore reminds me of this. Just like Huckabee does.

Amen,amen,AMEN!

Evidently some people think THEIR fascist flavor is non-fattening and good for you,unlike all the other fascist flavors.

"Yes, it is flaky for judges to put up 2.5-ton religious monuments inside state judicial buildings."

You think that's flaky? How about those who put dead bodies in the Capitol rotunda? Weird.

Where does it say both can't be flaky?

NO PUBLIC MONEY.

I think many of us believe something like that would work.

But it fails to account for the perversity of voters and the stubbornness of candidates.

It would be nice if it really were that simple. But it isn't. The voters would screw up a system like that too.

Let's imagine there are only two strong "qualified" candidates in a race. Each one gets 32% and 34% of the voters give their none-of-the-above votes. Now you've disqualified the only two candidates that everyone knows. It's entirely possible that either candidate with the 32% would be preferred by the other party over any other new second-round candidates. But you would have prevented them from running again.

The courts wouldn't allow it anyway. They'd say you were limiting freedom of speech by the candidates and inhibiting their qualifications for office (by imposing requirements for election to office that the Constitution itself does not, much as they said whenever some state tries to impose term limits for federal offices).

And Moore is allowed to stand up for what he fells is right.

Yes,he is. In his role as a private citizen,but NOT when he dons the judicial robes and is standing in a public building.

We are teaching little 2 and 3 and 4 year olds that males and females are interchangeable (Marxism) and we can become “whatever” we want, because there is NO Objective Truth (God) and NO Natural Law or Natural instincts (which is proven to exist) and NO Truth (God)-—never proven.

So—we are deliberately creating human beings who can not use their God-given mind for critical thought. They are being programmed only (Common Core/NCLB/Goals 2000) which deliberately warps all perceptions—especially of identity—so that indvidualism and free will will be impossible for any of these children who go through their indoctrination system which embeds dependency (vice/slavery). This brainwashing includes the sodomites in Hollywood who are raping all the little boys and PLAN how to WARP the desires and “thinking” of your little Johnny for their future orgies. Vice creates Slaves only. Virtue formation is essential for civil societies. FOR THE NWO “utopia” where Slavery is Freedom and Vice is Virtue and Boys are Girls.

They have to destroy the brain and interactions between both sides of the brain-—to fracture it—and make it impossible for critical thinking to occur.....they figured out this (the Jekyll Island Satanic worshippers) —how to control the minds of children (and all adults) by repeating lies and disinformation (which will become the truth) and by normalizing evil, dysfunctional, degrading, dehumanizing behaviors like forcing sodomy and baby- killing into “Just” Laws (LOL) —evil behaviors which erase the Christian worldview, the ONLY RATIONAL, just worldview in history.

Wisdom is the ability to discern Good and Evil (CIcero) and ALL MSM lie to us OVER AND OVER. We need the truth and if we know it—we will be free when we rid our country of ALL evil, vile “Law” and have TRUE freedom of the press—(not owned by 6 people), and take back the Constitution and our economic system from the satanists and sodomites, which has been controlled by a few elites who forced us into all the wars for their filthy wealth and power control of all countries.

Without wisdom - true knowledge ... we are dupes --- incapable of free will.
