why should we have to abandon roy moore if democrats are sticking by their people. now you have democrats saying it s not fair that we have to lose someone that we like, al franken, when the republicans get to keep their dirty old man. so it is not, i don t think, a partisan phenomena, these allegations of sexual misconduct. but we are seeing a lot of partisan responses to them. this is not the hill you want to die on, defending this, neither republican or democrat. this issue is not it. i think everyone can agree with john. we ll talk more. stick around, everybody. when we come back, steve bannon making vicious attacks against the republican establishment. is he in a full-on war against the gop? and if so, who will win? your digestive system?okinn try align probiotic. for a non-stop, sweet treat goodness, hold on to your tiara kind of day. get 24/7 digestive support, with align. the #1 doctor recommended probiotic brand.
