Yeah I was saddened as well as shocked to hear he won the primary election . WTF is ALABAMA thinking ? SO incredibly stupid!

When former Chief Justice, Sue Bell Cobb, the lone Democrat on the Alabama Supreme Court, stepped down it became a Republican seat by default. The Republican takeover of Alabama has been long and coming for awhile now. The Alabama Democratic Party has been a joke because most of them were "Dixiecrats" looking for a reason to show their true colors and the election of President Obama was it. Most white Alabamians are just like their fellow southern peers in other states, rather elect a nutjob demagogue rather than somebody that exhibits actual jurisprudence.
Kentucky did it with Rand Paul, Georgia did it with both its gubernatorial, state legislative, and US senatorial races, Mississippi continues to do it in all electoral races, Florida has suddenly began to thwart its decades of social progression with idiocy of Rick Scott & Co., Virginia with Bob McConnell & the band of idiots whom enjoy rummaging around women's vaginas, and the list goes on and on. North Carolina is the only Southern state that has avoided by a hair literally, but Tuesday will be judgement day for whether this can stand the test of the sudden uprising of racial (that never left in the first place) and social animus that has come back to the surface in the South.
Alabama is just falling in line with the craziness...
