That. If the Democrat was pro-life then Moore and the rest of the Republicans would accuse him of being pro-gay, pro-amnesty, a tax-raiser, etc., etc.
It did help John Bel Edwards, though. But maybe it won't hurt him a lot if voters perceive him as being honest about his political positions.
Anyway, when Moore was asked why he refuses to debate Jones he didn't said because his opponent is pro-choice, he said it's because Jones is pro-transgender.
And.....You take him at his word? It's not that Moore might just be to cowardly to debate and that's just the excuse?
