Suprak the Stud posted... https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/doug-jones-thinks-hes-supposed-to-be-here/ Heres what I think is a really good article on Doug Jones. Fantastic read. I'm not holding my breath about his chances in 2020 (it sucks he wasn't up again either this year or 2022), but he sounds like an incredibly qualified individual and I really appreciate his approach to moderation. Yeah, sadly, he is probably more qualified than even most other Democrats, but being from Alabama (particularly in a presidential election year) against a non-pedophile candidate, he's doomed. He might keep it within like 10 percentage points, maybe, but he has zero shot of holding on to his seat. The thing I found particularly crazy was "I would've done even better if it wasn't for the scandal!" I don't know if he genuinely believes that, but that's banana cuckoo nutso crazy talk. --- Moops?
