There's irony here we can't whistle past: The former Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court lost his election court battle because the court where he filed his lawsuit said it didn't have jurisdiction to hear the case.

No matter how rapidly he could recite scripture nor how fluidly he could quote the founding fathers, Moore was never that bright. His argument depended, in part, on the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution -- something Moore has been fighting against for his entire political career. But perhaps he knew that if he pleaded his case before a federal court, instead of state, he might be struck by lightning or, if not, disprove the existence of God.

And Alabama has seen how Moore loses. In the end, it didn't matter whether he conceded or not. There's no law that says the election doesn't count if he doesn't concede, any more than a football team may go to the playoffs if it refuses to recognize the final score.

Roy Moore was nobody's hero. But he lost, and that made this sorry movie worth watching.


Worth the time to read.
