So, Roy Moore is a tax evader. Maybe. It's tax law and it's confusing.
However, Moore as a candidate has two primary appeals in Alabama. The first is that he's a Republican. The second is that he's supposed to be this moral crusader, a Joan of Arc with a shriveled little penis and a ten-gallon hat.
Allegations of his tax improprieties can't be good for him. We have seen in the Age of Trump that Republicans can literally justify ANYTHING that a Republican does or says, if they think it will redound to their advantage. Evangelical Christians remain Trump's biggest supporters, because...honestly, I don't know, unless it's because Trump hates the same gay, brown city dwellers that they hate....very Christian of them.
Recent polling has the race tied or within the margin of error. That should be taken with a grain of salt, as special elections are notoriously hard to poll. Once again, Democrats are faced with a race in incredibly unfavorable territory that they could conceivably win.
And yet they will probably lose. It IS Alabama after all.
If Doug Jones pulls of the upset, it will set off alarm bells throughout the GOP. It could imperil any tax cut plan that explodes the deficit.
Maybe you could throw some coin his way?
