Roywatch editorial roundup
The Decatur Daily:
Roy Moore won’t be next Supreme Court appointee
But his defense of the Ten Commandments was also defiance of a federal court order to get them off public property. So he's out of the mainstream of judicial thought with respect to both his views on separation of church and state and his belief that he — as a judge, of all people — has the right not to obey a court order.
And the paper that's been on the forefront on Moore from the beginning, the Montgomery Advertiser:
Idea of appointing Moore scary thought
Why would anyone consider a man with a demonstrated disregard for law, a man who wanted to ignore with impunity a legal decision that had gone against him at every point of the process, fit for any court, much less the highest court in the land?

Wait. This isn't actually a possibility, is it? Not even a 1% chance?
Because this is all funny when it's a bunch of wackos campaigning for an obviously flawed and futile candidate, but it stops being enjoyable when there's the first whiff of Roy Moore actually being nominated.
By anybody. For anything.
Ever.
