We’ve had to endure Democrats trashing Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore for months over 40-year-old, unproven allegations, yet these same Democrats forget their own trash, like Al Franken, John Conyers, Charlie Rose, Matt Lauer, Harvey Weinstein and much more.

So when we hear that Moore poll numbers are looking good after all that adversity, we know why. The voters of Alabama simply don’t trust the media. It doesn’t matter what new allegations come out about Moore.

According to CBS News, a majority of Alabama Republican voters (53 percent) say the allegations against Moore are a concern, but that other things matter more. One-third of Republicans say the allegations don’t matter too much to them.

The poll describes a picture of many Republican voters: Half of Moore’s supporters say they are backing him mainly because they want a senator who will cast conservative votes in the Senate, rather than because they think Moore is the best person for the job.

The poll also found 49 percent of Moore voters say their vote will actually be in support of President Trump, and 23 percent of Moore voters say the president’s comments about the race, specifically, have made them more likely to back Moore.

Ninety-six percent of Roy Moore’s supporters approve of President Trump’s work while, among registered voters, it’s only 57 percent.

The challenger Doug Jones doesn’t seem to be pulling much crossover support.

I remain skeptical of the claims about Moore because these allegations only emerged decades later after it looked like he was going to win high office. It doesn’t help the accusers that ambulance-chaser Gloria Allred came out of the woodwork to back a victim.

Warning to all Republicans running for election or re-election next year: Media Matters for America CEO David Brock, a George Soros lackey, and Allred will be coming up with all kinds of sexual harassment or assault charges.

They are throwing millions of dollars at this to retake Congress in 2018 and the White House in 2020. So keep your nose clean, and if you have scandals in your past, don’t bother running.
