I really don’t know but I think a couple of things are at play
Virginia showed that the Dems are so mad they are focused on turnout. The news said that jones has outspent Roy 10 to 1. If only 25 per cent of voters vote turnout will be crucial. Shelby saying he can’t vote for Moore is a tipping point of sorts. I am going to say Jones wins a close one because republicans stay home because they are conflicted. This was the whole purpose of the WaPo story and will be a textbook case for future elections for Dems. It was actually the same strategy with the trump bush thing but trump was a more engaging character than Moore.
I do not think that Moore losing will be all that bad for republicans. If it happens he cannot be a poster boy for 2018, and we won’t have to endure the surreal theater of republicans trying to eat one of their own for something he did 40 years ago, while democrats clap for an encore. Neither one of these guys is a good campaigner or politician, actually this is an election by proxy. I would have to agree with the sentiment that the people of Alabama deserve better. Whatever happens, the sun will come up on Wednesday like it always does.
