Take on the election to change all elections

All the talk around the water cooler was about Doug Jones, a guy about as exciting as Smarty Jones or Doug Fister. But really this was not about Doug's enthusiasms or electability as much as it was about the horrid human that is Roy Moore.
The world will try to read into this and try to write a narrative that Trump's base is leaving him which couldn't be less accurate. Had Luther Strange won the election, the GOP would have easily held the seat and would have beaten Jones by 20 points, so I don't see this as a condemnation of Trump, it just meant that people don't like a kid toucher in the senate

The GOP will take this seat back in a landslide the next time it's up because, well, Roll Tide
