There's part of me that really wants to vote for Roy Moore in December, just to throw another gallon of gas on the pyre and watch it burn.

Let's face it: @realDonaldTrump didn't endorse Luther Strange because he was confused or misled. Mitch McConnell's Senate Leadership Fund didn't throw millions of dollars away because they didn't know what the alternative was.

They threw themselves behind Strange because they read what's written on the wall: With Roy Moore as the GOP nominee, Democrats will win this Alabama election, even if Doug Jones loses it.

National Democrats, that is.

Since it became clear Moore would beat Strange in the GOP runoff, national media have mined his career for clips of his most outrageous utterances. And those things aren't hard to find.

Lots of links to outrageous/barbaric views Roy Moore has admitted to, and is in fact proud of it. Don't miss it !
