What Do You Expect From A Party That Allows An Admitted Sexual Assaulter To Lead Their Party?....

Now a number of them had made their statements and can hide behind them - knowing full well that Moore will most probably be elected to the Senate. They are in a win-win situation. Win: They say he should pull out of the election. Makes them look like they don't condone his actions and if he does pull out - they look good. Win: If he wins - at least they can say that they took a stand and supported him pulling out of the election. They can't be responsible for the actions of the voters that elected him. The People have spoken.

I'm almost sure this was their calculation before they made their statement on Moore.

in spite of knowing about it ahead of time, I may believe that.

Why do I get a feeling he won't say anything at all like that?... Hmmmm
