One thing for Roy
PACs often mask who's behind gift
Just one thing... He doesn't take PAC money. Of course, he's going to lose because of it, but it's an actual principled stand.

And it highlights his surprising lack of ability to raise money in Alabama. I can't figure that. Maybe his local supporters spent all their spare bucks on rock replicas.

It's not a principled stand at all. They're not going to give him contributions (they're not stupid). Plus, Roy took lots of PAC money when he ran for chief justice. So why is he flip-flopping now? Did PACs suddenly become evil in the last couple of years only?

I have my sources, Tim. There are people who wanted to set up PACs for Roy and he refused.
