Gov. Charlie Baker might not quite be writing “Doug Jones for U.S. Senate” checks like some of his fellow Republicans. But the Massachusetts governor strongly suggested Monday that he is backing the Alabama Democrat in Tuesday’s election against Republican Roy Moore — albeit in a somewhat tortured exchange.
“I’m certainly not supporting Roy Moore,” Baker said at a public event Monday afternoon. “I think the only other candidate on the ballot is Doug Jones.”
The governor was then asked by a reporter if that meant he was supporting Jones.
“I think Doug Jones – I certainly don’t want to see Roy Moore win – that means, obviously, that I would be supporting the alternative,” he said.

Republican Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore weighed in on the terror attack in Manhattan on Monday, vowing to back President Trump’s tough stance against Islamic terrorists if elected.
“As we get news this morning of yet another radical Islamic terrorist attack, I am grateful that it appears no one was critically injured, and, as always, I am thankful for the quick action of law enforcement who have the suspect in custody,” Moore wrote on Twitter, hoping to generate some positive press for himself by seizing on the bombing.
“This incident underscores the continued threats our nation faces from those who want nothing more than to destroy the freedoms we enjoy. I am committed to implementing the president’s travel ban, putting an end to sanctuary cities, building the wall and making America safer,” he continued.

Of course it's a religious test. You and Moore are making the unwarranted assumption that all Muslims, and Senator Ellison in particular, wish to impose Sharia law on the country. It's reminiscent of the objections that some had to electing Kennedy -- that as a Catholic he would take orders from the Pope instead of abiding by the Constitution.
The Founders were well aware of the possibility that some day a Muslim might be elected or appointed to a federal office (see the quote from James Iredell that I previously posted). Nevertheless, they didn't restrict the No-Religious-Test Clause to any particular faith.
Moore's contempt for the rule of law was made plain when he disobeyed lawful court orders in connection with the Ten Commandments display and his attempt to block the implementation of the Obergefell decision, both of which got him removed from the Alabama Supreme Court. If Ellison is disqualified to serve in the Senate because he can't support the Constitution, Moore is doubly so.
We have long had death and taxes as the two standards of inevitability. But there are those who believe that death is the preferable of the two. "At least," as one man said, "there's one advantage about death; it doesn't get worse every time Congress meets."

Well, maybe he's right and a guy who speaks to the Constitution Party of Alabama and flirted with that party for president will actually be a clone of Mitch McConnell who spent 30 million against him.
Maybe guys who the MSM attack for only wanting the first 10 amendments actually want huge government.

On the one hand, I'd like Moore to lose to hurt the Bannon-populist movement.
On the other hand, I'd kind of like his supporters (those who are not deranged, e.g. yourself) to learn a lesson.
It's probably better altogether that he lose, though, which is what I'm expecting to happen.
So, anyway, I don't think we'll get to see who's right.

No, and that's the point. Everyone else bailed on Moore to save face. Rand didn't, it would have been easier for him to drop him, Reason and other outlets have attacked him hard. Moore will be more reliable than Cruz and maybe even Lee. People like Rand who understand Moore and his circle of influence know this.
Moore's priorities:
1. Social issues
2. Social issues
3. Social issues
4. Social issues
5. Social issues
...
99. Social issues
100. Throw out the immigrants
101. More military spending
...
9999. Liberty
Couldn't tell you.
Exactly
Precisely, and this is what so many libertarians don't understand about this race. Moore is not a Santorum type religious phony. He's a fire-breathing limited government type, closely aligned with Baldwin and other prominent Paul supporters and donors. He doesn't want a big empire, he wants to live in an old fashioned country with little churches, and in a culture where the current social issues aren't even an issue.
