Cue in The Gambler
Alabama Dem leader Joe Reed on Doug Jones' failed power move: "George Wallace tried it, too" |
So while Alabama Republicans are fielding candidates running on defending our way of life and our values (sic) Alabama Democrats, and EYE use that term loosely, are forming a circular firing squad. YeeHaw!
“This was not necessary,” Reed says. “We lost a whole year fighting among ourselves when we should have spent the whole year working the highways and byways of Alabama to help Doug Jones. But he spent all his time fighting us.”Let's recap.
England and a faction of the State Democratic Executive Committee that supports new leadership and new party bylaws scheduled a meeting for Nov. 2 to hold the elections. The Democratic National Committee, which ordered new elections and bylaws, recognizes that as the official date.
Worley and her supporters on the SDEC scheduled a Nov. 16 meeting.
Worley has said the dispute is probably headed for court.
In the latest DNC enabled escalation of the ADP infighting Rep. Chris England and former Rep. Patricia Todd have entered the fray to lead the new Alabama Democratic Party.
B-But Tabitha Isner
B-But Will Boyd.......
B-But Myron Penn.....
B-But Vivian Figures.....
This divisive DNC enabled #DoOver is threatening Doug Jones's re-election.
The feud began last August when Jones made known he wanted Worley to step aside. But Worley ran for another term — beating back the entire slate Jones supported.But maybe that's the plan...
“He went after Nancy’s seat. He lost,” said Joe Reed, a civil rights veteran who heads the Alabama Democratic Conference, the state’s principal African American Democratic club, and Worley’s most powerful ally. “Doug’s slate lost. He came back. He got with Perez. They then came up with a scheme to challenge Nancy’s election.”
Jones faces a strongly contested re-election effort in November of 2019. For Democrats to have any realistic hopes of taking control of the U.S. Senate from Republicans they need to hold on to Jones’s seat.EYE report.
You decide.
