Gives the Republicans a bit more time to get whatever they need through the Senate before Luther Strange gives up his seat. All the ballots won't be counted until over a week's time, even though there aren't enough military and absentee ballots to be counted to make a difference.

Unfortunately for Moore, God is usually pretty quiet on these things, or indeed anything...

The two candidates this time have markedly different demeanours and backgrounds. Mr Jones is genial and steady, Mr Moore preening, sour and angry. Mr Jones ran on policy, talking about “kitchen-table issues” such as health care and education; aside from hating abortion and same-sex marriage, Mr Moore talked about little other than his own piety. Mr Jones was a federal prosecutor who successfully convicted domestic terrorists: two Klansmen who killed four black girls in an infamous church bombing in 1963. Mr Moore was twice removed from his post as Alabama’s chief justice for flouting federal law. He believes homosexuality should be illegal, Muslims should not be allowed to serve in Congress, the Constitution exists to foster Christianity and America was last great “at the time when families were united—even though we had slavery.” Several women have accused him of offences ranging from sexual misconduct to assault; most were teenagers at the time of the alleged incidents.

Nuts to think that he had to be a paedo to lose by the slimmiest of margins, given all of that.

Or possibly, given that he's lost more than one election and once been removed from his post, that God is trying to tell him something but he is refusing to listen.

According to an exit poll, he got 72% of white male votes.

2% of people voted for Doug Jones "To express support for Donald Trump". And 14% of "Liberals" voted for Roy Moore.

And still not conceded.

For someone so convinced that what happens is down to God's will, he seems unable to take the hint.

Perhaps they are waiting for a hurricane to blow away the ballot papers.

Think you can work that one out mate, with your outstanding skillz you've showed in the past.

So you don't know and are just posting numbers to show you're trendily anti US?

I dunno about him but I have been anti-American for donkeys - way back when the incumbent Vietnam war veterans in Kenya were shifting Cocaine around to fund the PLO. And that's the truth. You have never met people who were so anti-US establishment.

I always said that as a race of people, the Brits are fantastic but you get odd individuals who are tw@ts whereas in the US, as a race of people, they are tw@ts but you meet some very good individuals.
The last time I said that I got some abuse but given the recent mass killings and voting for Trump...
...and given the Brexit vote, I may have to revise my sentiment.

And when you see the calibre of the conservative judges that trump is trying to fill the judiciary with

As you great philosophers seem to enjoy the daily mail then look at what it has to say about the british judges.

Rumours that Trump will fire Mueller on the 22nd.

He can't actually do that. He has to get someone else to. So far, no takers.

FishFish

Great to see the success that Mr Trump has made of his presidency. He committed to pre- election promises and kept them and I wish that European democracy could step up to that.

Glad to see that the Fellows of All Souls are about putting the post election events in to such cleverly analysed perspective. Someone has even become an expert on labour and contract law and divined an employment which '...can't actually.. (be fired)'. (sic).

Thing is, Fish2 is partially correct (in only that Dotard has kept most of his promises but has only managed to partially get the full legislation he promised through, but still, on face value he has done what he said he would do).

He’s still a twattt though (Dotard that is, not F2 as I don’t know enough about F2 to decide yet - he doesn’t make it blatantly obvious like others).

Just imagine the outrage from the left if he got re elected for hitting most of his election promises!

Whilst amusing, the irony will be if what he delivers does nothing for his Redneck following, it won't matter a jot

You mean like another 213 pages of moaning about the president of a different country? God forbid

bringing it home, i noticed rees-mogg on the news yesterday, whining like a spoiled brat because he doesn't like parliamentary democracy

he was using trump's hand-gestures, which got me thinking, maybe it's a cult and this is one of their recognition signs?

He spoke a bit of sense on Newsnight on Thursday but then he went off on one for a short while before Emilly Maitliss kept interrupting (with that most irksome of aggressive styles that seems to be adopted by NN presenters) which unfortunately saved him from further bouts of spouting eccentric bollox.

Hey 214 pages you mean, with the help of people who have no interest in the president of a foreign country (unless of course he's reducing taxes for big business) chipping in, and of course a couple of brexiteer trolls who see there dream of a hard brexit slipping away, so may as well throw in a few right wing troll bombs

Certainly get the impression that some on here would have been devastated if DT had turned out half decent. Just as they will be devastated if Brexit aint a complete disaster.
