Democrats scour map for sleeper races

8. Great. Doug Jones's experience should also be causing

the DCCC and DSCC, and also liberal donors looking for people to back, to widen their perceptions of potentially electable candidates they need to invest in.

In blood-red Alabama, Jones of course didn't talk to nation-wide passions on the left by badmouthing Trump and other Republican leaders, much less Republicans, and of course he's not capital-P Progressive, so no interest from that direction. And, above all, he's pro-abortion in Alabama. Good luck with that, Doug.

Then Roy Moore's sexual depravity is outed a month before election day, and a suddenly viable Democratic candidate just as suddenly becomes underfunded and underdiscussed, and we're scrambling to help maximize his chances.

Maybe we should also invest in investigating Republican candidates a lot more also. That party's become so corrupted and extreme that there's really something wrong with a lot of those who want to become official swamp creatures. We shouldn't have been surprised by the WaPo revelations when just a little digging in his home town would have turned them up.
