No.

All of these would be terribly damaging to his campaign. Instead, she tells the reporter about the mundane details: being approached while sitting in the courthouse hallway, being asked for her number, speaking with Moore in the telephone from her bedroom, being picked up around the corner from her house and driven to a home out in the woods, being given alcohol and then disrobing as he kissed her, being touched and having him put her hand on his penis through his underwear, being uncomfortable and wanting it to just end. The best part of her scheme, however, was to travel back in time to 2009, just to tell her then-boyfriend about this encounter do that he could corroborate her story 18 years later when a reporter showed up at her door because Moore was the Republican candidate for the US Senate.

This. If the Post set out simply to slander Moore, wouldn't they have included even harsher details, for example about rape etc? Not that the story isn't bad enough but if you are making things up why not make up something even more salacious?

Not enough has been made of this. If she was going to make something up, why not go big? She knows it's her word against his. Why not say he raped her? Why not say he raped her and she got pregnant, and he made her get an abortion?

Because that would be less believable.

With a father like Roy Moore, the kid never stood a chance.

Making fun of a kid struggling with drug and alcohol issues? Dream big, buddy.

But that's typical partisans with their inflammatory rhetoric attempting to apply the glue while the other side runs around with their whitewash.

Both sides are doing their level best to hold our nation up for contempt. Any wonder why both parties have diminished numbers over the last 20 years?

I hang out with the 13-14 year old set, since I have an 8th grade DD. Most of them: have recently started getting their periods, still have braces, still think boys are icky, are obsessed with Hamilton (like sing it together 24/7), don’t wear makeup, just started texting last year, and are both excited and terrified to be starting high school next year. They do not look like adult women. They certainly do not act like adult women. And maybe if you are a 14 year old boy, you have a crush on one of them, and want to go to a movie and try to hold her hand. But it would take a super sick emotionally stunted perverted creep to be a grown ass adult and to think that it was appropriate to have an adult sexual relationship with a girl this age.
