I opened your OP and saw that and laughed.

Voting for Moore is their way of saying they are dumb, very dumb, and proud to be very dumb.

Really like a choice between being chained to the bottom of a 15 foot tank being filled with sewage, either standing up or standing on your head.

Moore's main attribute is that Trump was backing Strange, most likely because he liked the idea of getting a little strange.
