If Judge Moore wins and then is proven to have victimized young women several decades ago the Republican Governor of Alabama would name the replacement. Logically she should choose herself and keep Republican women happy.
The timing on the accusations on Judge Moore are too convenient for reasonable people to ignore. The election must go ahead and the results and subsequent investigations proceed to satisfy the public in due course. Trying to flip election outcomes with last minute disqualifying accusations against opponenets that probably could be otherwise beaten isn’t a great practice for the U.S.A. Nor is it terribly good to just assume that Alabama’s Judiciary is rather sleezy and unethical. The U.S. Supreme Court’s reputation is already a bit tarnished, and former Judges should be given at least a little respect and not be treated like dirt by Republican leaders without any semblance of equal protection or due process of law.
If Judge Moore is elected to the Senate and it is found that he was of sufficiently bad character that he ought not serve the public, who have far better moral behavior, then he can resign and allow a strong Republican women to step up and fill in the remainder of the 6 year Senatorial term.

One response
May I offer some thoughts re: Evangelical Christian support of Mr. Moore?
1. We all bear the shame and the glory of the Cross. When anyone in our Christian family fails, separates, sins, etc. we are hurt because we belong to the same body.
2. Major characters of the Bible including the Lord were scorned, falsely accused, and even conspired against.
3. His character witnesses are equally valid as the voices of 9 accusers.
Isaiah 8:11-13
A Call to Fear God
11For thus the LORD spoke to me with mighty power and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying, 12″You are not to say, It is a conspiracy!’ In regard to all that this people call a conspiracy, And you are not to fear what they fear or be in dread of it. 13″It is the LORD of hosts whom you should regard as holy. And He shall be your fear, And He shall be your dread.…
All who are accused in public opinion of a crime are innocent until proven guilty. I will cheer when Judge Moore goes to court, and then we can see that he or his accusers are brought to justice. Thanks for post!
PS- Look up some info on Franken’s first election. The Swamp spent millions stealing Republican norm Coleman’s victory. How? They allegedly found 1,099 uncounted ballots in the trunk of a car?!? They were the votes of felons, but they counted them anyway and VIOLA; the Dems had his vote just in time to illegally pass Obamacare. That is Franken’s character, that is the story that needs to be told.
Also, Franken was heavily enabled by George Soros and MN SOS mark Ritchie
