There has to be at least another 14-year-old, since Corfman even mentions that she got dumped for another 14-year-old girl because she turned 16 and Moore thought she was too old by then.

Also, the real shoe dropping would be an incident with a minor after 1985. It would mean a whole lot of things.

What happens if he's expelled? Another special election, or the governor appoints someone? If you're looking for a reason why the Senate might expel him, that would be it right there; to retain a Republican seat.

I think many of them would rather have a democrat over Moore before this came out, he was always going to be a headache for them in the Senate. But opposing him would have produced a backlash from the base. Now they have the opportunity to disavow him, and they're taking it.

WikiLeaks didn’t respond to that message, but on October 12, 2016, the account again messaged Trump Jr. “Hey Donald, great to see you and your dad talking about our publications,” WikiLeaks wrote. (At a rally on October 10, Donald Trump had proclaimed, “I love WikiLeaks!”)

“Strongly suggest your dad tweets this link if he mentions us,” WikiLeaks went on, pointing Trump Jr. to the link wlsearch.tk, which it said would help Trump’s followers dig through the trove of stolen documents and find stories. “There’s many great stories the press are missing and we’re sure some of your follows [sic] will find it,” WikiLeaks went on. “Btw we just released Podesta Emails Part 4.”

Trump Jr. did not respond to this message. But just 15 minutes after it was sent, as The Wall Street Journal’s Byron Tau pointed out, Donald Trump himself tweeted, “Very little pick-up by the dishonest media of incredible information provided by WikiLeaks. So dishonest! Rigged system!

I envision a dispute over leaves or grass clippings, them both jawing at each other, a line drawn in the sand, and then one of them defiantly staring the other one in the eye while turning on the leaf blower and blowing the crap across the property line. The other one then loses it and starts the fight and Paul gets the poo poo kicked out of him.

I think it has to be this. Otherwise the Senate GOP would not be so adamant he step aside, given how equally adamant FoxNews and the Alabama GOP are that he not.

it costs nothing to tweet that roy moore should step down. they wont run anyone as a sign in candidate

that would be the real sign to me that they truly want moore out. if they ran a sign in campaign they would only need to shave a few % off moore for jones to win

if they wanted jones to win they could make it happen easy. they will make noise that roy should step down.
