Donald Trump threw the full weight of the White House behind Moore.

Came here to post this. I’ve never been happier to see Ron Paul’s dumb face.

Holy shit. It was not fun watching Roy Moore hold a lead for the entire night. Though it was satisfying to have it reverse with less than 10% of precincts left. Huzzah for meeting some basic level of human decency in Alabama.

I think curling is the sport the average Joe feels like he could compete in the most, and that explains a lot of its popularity.

In reality, you have no more chance of being an olympic curler than you do of winning the Giant Slalom with salmon on your feet instead of skis, but it just FEELS like you could!
