Democrats are elated, Birmingham’s big mules are relieved and the once dominant Alabama Republican Party — whether they will admit it or not — is in trouble. From solid red counties to African-American communities financially handicapped by white Republican leaders, the U.S. Senate race showed that a few committed individuals could change Alabama’s political landscape, at least for now.
As several longtime political operatives confided to the Alabama Political Reporter, “It took the Washington Post to set-up Roy Moore, but it was the Republican leadership who brought him down.”
Democrats mostly comprised of dedicated millennials and a block of motivated African-Americans stood up to Moore while the Republican Party stood down. As one politico put it, “It was like Auburn or Alabama football players not taking the field because they didn’t like the quarterback.” He added, “The Democrats didn’t have a strong quarterback, but they had a hell of a team.”
