On Moore's loss: Moore lost because of (questionable) accusations he molested 14-year-old. It took 10x the spending and a national smear campaign for Jones to barely win. This has established a Democrat playbook for the future: a handful of unverifable sexual accusations...

Most of the accusations were nothing and nobody would have cared had it not been for the 14yo he allegedly touched. While it was minor consensual touch (that would have been nothing if she was 18), it was technically illegal and within the range where people could call pedophile.
-
Just enough "ick" factor that people will react to it. The rest of the accusations were simply to boost the apparent credibility of the 14yo.

Pedophile is a real stretch for that, and people shouldn't be so dumb about it. Teens are attractive, and it would be better not to pretend otherwise

I agree, calling someone a pedophile for being attractive to a pubescent is silly, but it's common enough that Dems could do it without being thought ridiculous.
