    It's difficult for me to find the words to adequately communicate the metric tons of contemptuous loathing I feel for this argument.

    His argument completely misses the subject at hand. Paedophilia.

    The GOP and particularly the R's in the Senate are in a serious conundrum with Roy Moore now. While they are calling for him to step down, they are stuck with him being on the ballot next month, they could get Strange to run a write in campaign but that may help Doug Jones the D candidate. They are caught between the proverbial rock and hard place! Don't feel sorry for them.

    77-81 is awfully old for the rigours of the Presidency.

    Yea, Biden seems a bit past it. I’d vote for him if I had to.

    Biden is going to get hammered with sexual harassment allegations if he runs for office again.

    Not sure when this poll was done, but it smells trouble for the Alabama molester.

    Big Mo also fvcked a 10 year old girl, I doubt republicans will use him as am example to protect Moore.

    At first. Baby J did have brothers and sisters, not sure how young Marry was when Joseph first plowed into her.

    No they are not, they are just talk, they won't/can't do anything about Moore becoming the next senator of Alabama.

    No more Boomers or Silent Generation candidates, please. Thank you for your service Joe, and Bernie & HRC, but it's time for new candidates.

    If Biden was ten years younger, he'd be ideal. Lots of name recogition, an affable style, able to bridge the gap between Bernie's populism and Hilary's pragmatism, and he's from an administration that I'm fairly certain Americans remember with more fondness than the current one. Now? He's too old, and as much as I feel for him losing his son, politically the right moment to run passed him by in 2015.

    He also has already run once before, 1988. He lost to the other Clinton.

    I agree. I do not want him running again.

    Hopefully we will see some new candidates, perhaps a la Obama in 2007, but I would be just fine with Joe as well if none appears.

    Come on, Alabama: elect that ********er.

    That would be a gift for 2018.

    I am conflicted on this Would like the D's to get one more Senate seat and the Doug Jones dude seems to be a really decent and solid person. At the same time, I know that Roy Moore on Capitol Hill will be a total daily freak show! This albatross would be around each and every elected R around the country.

    I disagree.

    That would be a sickening, morally bankrupt moment for the nation. Yet another triumph for political tribalism over basic human decency.

    Back from a 25-mile weekend hike. Did I miss any crazy Trump tweets? ;)

    If Doug Jones is elected, tax reform is dead. The GOP might push through a watered down tax cut but Corker wants deficit neutral and McCain will likely vote his conscience or be dead when the conference comes around.

    The idea of Moore being in the Senate isnt funny. Pedophiles should be treated in reaaaally secure prisons/hospitals, not allowed to serve in Congress.
