If they are going to call for Moore to step aside then they also need to call for Franken to step do

    Absolutely. Franken and Moore should step down.

    I think they should both resign. But I'm not going to call for it in either case.

    I don't think it is so cut and dried. Franken was not an elected official in 2006. He was a clown. Still is, IMO. I don't understand why the Senate is going to have an ethics investigation into what a comedian did on a USO trip in 2006. Unless there are complaints since he got elected I don't think that is necessary. I mean, that would be a witch hunt, wouldn't it? I would hope he would not stand for reelection, or if he did he would be rejected by voters.

    Roy Moore? Let the election proceed. Let's see if pedophilia is the floor which tribal Republicans will not exceed. If he wins the Republicans in the Senate can deal with him.

    I'm not so sure either should step down, although Moore isn't even in office yet. Al admitted it, they had photos, but Moore denies it and should be given the benefit of the doubt for now. And even Franken should be given another chance, let the voters of Minnesota have the last word on this - MA kept Kennedy in office decades after he drowned that lady, there is precedence for this. And Mitch needs to back off, gay skeletons may be in his closet and the sixties are game if the seventies are.

    Moore's guilt has not been proven as of yet

    One has been proven in photo, & the other is condemned by virtue of accusation.
    Can’t think of any better gift to liberals than to allow them to ACCUSE anyone they do not want in office.
    This is literally the golden goose/eggs to allow them to try to sway ANY election they really want to screw up — in their favor.
    REAL GOOD MOVE!!!!!!!!!

    The difference. No proof against Moore.

    Solid proof against Franken.

    Hardly. And even if it wasn't a forgery, it wouldn't prove he tried to rape her. It wouldn't even prove he knew her.

    This lie was dead from day one.

    Why imply false accusations? Judge Moore have never been accused of pedophilia.

    The Democrats have already exceeded it.

    Former Rep. Gerry Studds (D. Mass) was censured for sexual relationship with underage male page in 1983. Massachusetts voters returned him to office for six more terms.

    Former Rep. Mel Reynolds (D. IL) was convicted of 12 counts of sexual assault with a 16-year-old. President Bill Clinton pardoned him before leaving office.

    I guess Kevin Spacey took his defense strategy from Studds--announcing his homosexuality when the news broke of his having sex with an underaged boy.

    The only difference between a Hollywood leftist and a Washington DC leftist is about 3,000 miles.
