... ABC 33/40 located a man who says he's Corfman's former boyfriend.

Mike Ortiz says he dated Corfman for two years, around 2009 and 2010 ...

Ortiz said during his time dating Corfman ... she told him about an experience she had with Moore that included a sexual encounter.

"I believed her," said Ortiz. "I mean, I believe her. I don't you know, I think she always fought with whether to come out with it public or not, you know internally what she needed to do with it to let people know about it. But, I believed her when she told me and I still believe her. She wouldn't lie about something like that" ...

They told at least 30 people about it over the years, according to one reported tally.

They did not come forward to push some story on the press. Reporters found them.

Of course, one of the tactics the RW is using to defend the indefensible is to say "nobody" heard about this until now so the press must have dragged a 20 dollar bill through a trailer park to get four women to come forward and suffer all the abuse the RW is capable of heaping on people to make their lives miserable.

For obvious good reasons, men burn women at the stake:



Alabama Mobile County GOP chairman John Skipper: "It does not really surprise me. I think it is a typical Democratic - Democrat - ploy to discredit Judge Moore, a sincere, honest, trustworthy individual."


"These allegations that surfaced today - to my knowledge, they're all bunk. No credibility whatsoever," Mobile County Republican chairman John Skipper tells me.


If these allegations against Moore were true, Mitch McConnell's anti-Moore allies would have obviously found them and released them during the primary, Mobile County Republican chairman John Skipper tells me.


Alabama Covington County GOP Chairman William Blocker tells me Democrats convinced these women to tell a fake story to damage Moore.

I told him the 14-year-old became a Trump voter.

"That's the typical background or profile of somebody they would be using for that," he said.


"If they said she was a Hillary supporter, then she'd be more dismissed by the local voters here in the state of Alabama. You'd have to paint her as a Trump supporter to be of any credibility," Covington County GOP Chairman William Blocker says.


"Yeah!" Covington County GOP Chairman William Blocker tells me he'd consider voting Moore even if hard proof of sexual abuse emerged.


"There is NO option to support to support Doug Jones, the Democratic nominee. When you do that, you are supporting the entire Democrat party."


Tally from my calls to Alabama GOP county chairs: 4 vehemently pro-Moore, 3 no comment/"haven't read the story yet," 15 I couldn't reach, 0 criticism of Moore.


Postscript: GOP officer who'd vote Moore even if he was a proven sex offender refused in 2015 to accept the legalization of gay marriage, saying "it's wrong."

If he weren't, that Ewok would bite him. They're very sensitive to lying.
