I have been fretting for some time about  Roy Moore  coming to the U.S. Senate.  He  embodies every negative stereotype anyone ever had of people from Alabama. As I wrote soon after  his  win in the GOP primary   “Moore  is bad for Alabama and worse for the GOP.” Well  I didn’t think it was possible when I wrote that piece a couple weeks ago  but things have managed to get even worse. Yesterday’s revelations in The Washington Post that he has a history of inappropriately engaging teenage girls exposed a whole new level of disqualification for  Moore .
Suffice it to say  I was worried then — and more so now — that if anyone or any company considered moving jobs to Alabama  holding a conference in my home state or doing anything to contribute to our economy  we would have to hide  Moore . Rather than use the senator and the resources a Senate office brings as a recruiting tool  businesses will shy away from having anything to do with toxic  Roy Moore .
In recent years  Alabama has been particularly successful in recruiting aircraft manufacturers and hi-tech aerospace companies to the state. We’ve always had a robust delegation at the Paris Air Show  and we’ve built a reputation as one of the nation’s top states for doing business. But can you imagine  Moore  at the Paris Air Show pitching Alabama as a modern environment for hi-tech companies? Arrrrghhh! Even if what people will hear and read about  Moore  wasn’t bad enough  much of the time   he  looks the part.  He ’s beyond an eccentric crazy uncle. Wearing  his  small cowboy hat  a tight vest and sometimes displaying a tiny gun   Moore  looks like a reject from the Village People. The states that Alabama competes with for business development must be celebrating. Sigh.
Republican senators on Nov. 9 called on  Roy Moore  to withdraw from a Senate race in Alabama if allegations of sexual misconduct are true. President Trump echoed the sentiments  calling it "mere allegation." (Jordan Frasier Bastien Inzaurralde/The Washington Post)
To say  the least  Moore  would not be able to help recruit jobs to Alabama.  He  won’t be a positive force as an ambassador to usher in international trade for Alabama’s $20.6 billion export market. And considering what we now know from The Washington Post’s reporting  no sane parent would dare to have their kids intern in  his  office.
Making matters worse is the fact that some in Alabama continue to stand up for  Moore . In a defense that will go down in history as a punchline in jokes about Alabama  State Auditor Jim Zeigler said  Moore ’s actions made  him  think of the memory of Jesus Christ. That’s right. He actually said: “[T]ake Joseph and Mary. Mary was a teenager and Joseph was an adult carpenter. They became the parents of Jesus. There’s just nothing immoral or illegal here.” Well  as Ron White famously said: “You can’t fix stupid. … Stupid is forever.”
Anyway   Moore  is more than just another embarrassment produced by Alabama politics.  His  presence has had profound national implications. Specifically  a traditionally safe Republican seat will likely flip to the Democrats.
The fact is  as Josh Holmes told the New York Times: “This is what happens when you let reckless  incompetent idiots like Steve Bannon go out and recruit candidates who have absolutely no business running for the U.S. Senate.” I won’t go so far as to suggest  Moore ’s rise is entirely due to Bannon — after all  Bannon only jumped on the Moore train a few weeks out from the election. But the presence of people like  Moore  and Bannon in the American political space is dangerous. Republicans everywhere need to say so and make clear that there is no justification for supporting  Moore .
