So-called conservatives are crazy, or they are lying

Yes, the reason that an explanation is necessary is that too many people take these people at face value.  For example, McConnell and co.  say they want to save the seat for the GOP.  But actually, they want to lose it.

By withdrawing support, they are increasing the likelihood of defeat.  If that cannot be achieved, they may try one of these ridiculous tactics in an effort to "win".  But such nonsense will only convict them in the eyes of the public.  The public will likely not vote for who the GOP says they want to win.

Meanwhile, Judge Roy Moore has no defenders amongst these clowns.  He cannot because they are not serious people.

In any case, why not let the people of Alabama decide?  That is what they are really afraid of.

If crazy, then it must mean that they are delusional.  By delusional, they believe in something that is categorically false.

An example is this Ace of Spades post.  So, he believes he can keep the Alabama senate seat by confirming what the leftists say?  If the GOP refuses to seat Moore, why would that keep the seat?  Because they confirmed that the voters cannot be trusted when they voted for Moore?  What's the guarantee of a positive reaction to having your vote nullified by a bunch a limp wristed wimps?  Does anybody believe these guys?  Their credibility is continually being tested, and they are found wanting.  Then he says to go with a write in campaign.  Uh-huh.  Split the vote, that's the ticket.

He says both options are hard.  By why only those two options?

Could it be that the lack of a fight from his own party is what may doom Moore?  What if they rose up in full support of the guy like the Democrats usually do?

Finally, this kind of opinion seems to rely on the belief that they are "protecting the brand".  What friggin' brand?  The kind of brand that always folds like a cheap accordion every time the left utters a discouraging word?

If the left can win by simply denouncing the opposition with unproven and unprovable charges, then we may as well stop having elections.  Hell, they did that stuff in the Soviet Union and every other tyrant regime since the beginning of man.  The USA was supposed to be different.

THE MAN SHOULD BE TRIED IF HE BROKE THE LAW.  GIVE THE GUY HIS DAY IN COURT OR STFU.  IF HE IS CONVICTED, THEN AND ONLY THEN REMOVE YOUR SUPPORT.

You'll never keep anything by running around in a panic every time the left makes a controversy out of one of your people.   Doing what Ace suggests is a near guarantee of defeat.  If you fight back, you may have a chance of winning.

Jeez.  Why does this have to explained?
