This article shows how completely complicit the media and outside special interests were and are in pimping this whiffle loser Doug Jones.
http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2018/02/sen_doug_jones_was_fundraising.html#incart_most-commentsThe site trumpets and boasts about the $22 million raised by Jones without bothering to question why a short-term Senate special election warranted that sort of cash influx OR pondering how much of that money came from out of state (more than 2/3 from what I've been told). Is it not a source of concern that tens of millions of dollars came from external interests? If it isn't, it should be.
Then this pandering piece of shit article tosses this ridiculous comment in toward the end:
It also perhaps signals that Jones' victory was not a fluke and speculation he will lose re-election to a Republican in 2020 in a ruby-red Republican state is not a given.Ummm, no. It signals nothing of the sort. It signals that the Republicans better find a more suitable candidate. When I have trouble voting for Jones' opponent as much as I abhor everything the Democratic Party stands for? That's the problem in a nutshell. And STILL, with $22 million from out of state and an opponent who was branded a pedophile by state and national media, this Goofy Gopher fuck barely won.
Twenty two million mostly from out of state should make you very nervous if you care about the State of Alabama.
