This New GOP Rebrand is Something ...
It's not what I would choose, but hey, at least the party is being true to itself. There's a lot to take in from Tuesday night's stunner. (First off, mazel tov Doug Jones!)
But also:
It's still mind-boggling someone as vile as Moore STILL nearly won a Senate seat.
There's something incredible black voters, in a state that has repeatedly (and effectively) tried to deny their right to vote, being the difference in this outcome.
It's hard to understate the courage of the women who came forward, especially in light of the awful backlash they received. In case you're wondering why more women do not speak up, well ...
Underrated wild fact: Jones only won a single Congressional district on Tuesday. Yea, gerrymandering is a big deal.
Still, hopefully last night's results are a sign of better things to come.
