[QUOTE=Big Dumb American;52971841]As grateful as I am that Jones actually won this, I want to remind you that this was a campaign between a highly educated lawyer who has devoted his life to defending justice, and a child molester who believes that homosexuality should be illegal, slavery was what made America great, and that minorities and women should not have the right to vote... And it was still a neck and neck race with an extremely close finish.
Jones winning is a whisper of hope, but how little he won by spells just how truly low our country has fallen.[/QUOTE]
I'd say that's not correct - this is the most Republican state in the Union - Republicans usually win by 30 points. Jones reversed that advantage by 31 points to win. That's an insane feat. Alabama will always be like this until the white boomers die off.

To be fair, it was a neck and neck race [i]in Alabama.[/i]
The fact that being a child molester who supports slavery wasn't the very thing that won him the election is an enormous upset.
did moore die, he's not coming out?

The less people are exposed to the evil that is conservatism, the more it will erode until finally the current "left" is the actual "right" like it is around the world right now. This starts with these close races.
I just realized i can make twin peaks jokes now that doug jones won the election
dougie jones does it again

It is like they don't know that there are these things called smartphones that can connect to this other thing called the internet where you can get any information you want. And all that information is saying their guy fucking lost.

He refuses to admit defeat.

More like how fucked it still is, I reckon it's been like this a very long time
This election however showcases just how little respect anyone with any sense of rationale, [I]especially[/I] if you're a republican, should respect the republican leadership
like I'm sorry but it's time to stop pretending that one party is even in spitting distance of being as bad as the other, the democrats have problems out the ass but the distance between them is fucking football fields in length
The Republican leadership is racist as hell, caters to nazis, bends over for corporations, and is willing to back a pedophile just to get their way, fuck them, if you're moderate or left, fight them as hard as you can, if you're a Republican, demand better, because this is not what the Republican party is supposed to be

My thoughts exactly. And the vote breakdown a few posts above yours is fucking horrendous.

[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;52971826]I never go there so I can't tell to what extent Pol is exploding
There's one thread of pure salt claiming the allegations were false, there's one thread of dems celebrating, there's a bunch of people yelling about being blacked, one guy claimed this is a good thing because jones supports abortion therefore "more nigs will die", one guy is hypothesizing that "what if we really are the bad guys and the dems will make america a better place?" with a crying pepe, and one guy posted that Hitler was in fact a Jewish agent working on behalf of a big kike trillionaire conspiracy
this could just be business as usual[/QUOTE]
thing about /pol/ is that it, much like every other board, isn't a hivemind
anyone can post there anonymously. In fact, /pol/ can be very interesting whenever big political events happen, because of the shitposting and legitposting from both sides
Hahaha the GOP just endorsed child molestation and have nothing to show for it. They showed the entire country their hand and walked away with nothing.
Good thing a candidate won from a party that's tough on crime and stands for wholesome values, you know the democrat rather than the guy from the [b]GOOD OLD PAEDOPHILES[/b] lmao

Also not surprised by this, a common theme of recent elections in various parts of the anglospheric West has been young people voting liberal where older folks vote conservative. Just glad to see one place where the liberal youth actually got what they voted for, even if it was by a margin that is disgustingly slim considering the other candidate was a fucking child molester.

That's going to be one hilarious takeaway, every Republican that backed him has scarred themselves for nothing, including the President
people will be less eager to defend the pedophile now that he can't win anyway and what's left is that the Republicans backed a pedo in pursuit of power
[QUOTE=mcharest;52971833]A few important points about tonight:
1) A Democrat just won in Alabama for the first time in decades.
2) A Democrat just won in Alabama for the first time in decades, [I]in spite of Republican voter suppression.[/I]
3) We now have a very good shot at defeating the Republicans' monstrous tax theft.
4) Donald Trump's brand is officially a political poison pill. This can no longer be denied.[/QUOTE]
I'm not so sure about that last one. If Moore was clean and lost for no other reason than the fact that Trump pushed him so hard, then sure. But all this proves is that he can't save a pedophile in Alabama. That does suggest that his brand is weak, but not necessarily poison.
The Onion is the true hero tonight.

I actually considered toxxing that Roy would win and he lost
oh god that would have been embarrassing
Alabamans fucked up big time tonight. They should have elected Moore.
Now Roy is going to have all this free time to stalk girls. They could have prevented it.

The gop is going to try and blitz the tax vote before he is sworn in.

Hey thanks for reminding me. RIP zillamaster
Holy fuck, a democrat won in a republican stronghold? That blows my fucking MIND.
This gives me SOME hope for the future.
Shoutout to the lady in red carrying around a 4'x6' framed copy of the Ten Commandments.
The Moore dudes said one dude would be up in a second to speak and then Moore would come up and it's been like fucking 20 minutes
