Dems may face a similar debacle in NJ (though I still expect he gets off).

If you hear any loud popping noises after that verdict, it'll be the heads exploding when McConnell insists that Christie be allowed to name the replacement since he's governor at the time, rather than the winner of the election.

Is that something she can do, and how is it due-process-type-stuff-wise? As a layman, it seems like it'd be iffy to let governor's reschedule elections for political reasons

is there a rule in congress that sitting congressmen/women can refuse a persons election, or would it be just symbolic if the GOP tells him to gently caress off?

It would be contested in court.

Also, Roy is the Republican candidate. If they try to bend the rules to run someone else, especially someone who was already was defeated this year, it will depress GOP turnout. It's not as easy as just swapping candidates.

Because it's hilarious to me that Hannity thinks he's a news man but he only fell rear end-backwards into loving Moore over because he kept asking him questions.

edit:

Bear in mind, Geraldo basically apologized to Sean for accusing him of this. "I don't think it was your intention... but you ended his candidacy." This was NOT what Hannity was going for. He was trying to help Moore by leading him to less damning answers, but Moore couldn't keep his half truths straight.
