McConnell super PAC working against Mo Brooks in Alabama Senate race

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is accelerating his campaign to defeat Rep. Mo Brooks in a special Senate election in Alabama.
The Kentucky Republican, through his affiliated super PAC and political nonprofit, is trying to clear a path for appointed Sen. Luther Strange in the Aug. 15 special primary. Brooks, a Republican and member of the House Freedom Caucus, has emerged as Strange's chief obstacle.
Senate Leadership Fund, McConnell's super PAC, and One Nation, SLF's 501(c)4 sister organization, have been alternating weeks on Alabama television with ads promoting Strange.
This week, SLF is expected to ratchet up the pressure on Brooks with ads attacking the congressman for opposing President Trump during the 2016 GOP presidential primary. Brooks supported Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas in that race.
"Being anti-Trump in Alabama will hurt Mo Brooks," SLF spokesman Chris Pack told the Washington Examiner in an interview. Unlike his polling nationally, Trump is popular in Alabama, and the group's polling shows that past opposition to Trump could hurt Brooks, Pack said.
The McConnell super PAC and One Nation have budgeted $10 million to boost Strange in the special election. If neither candidate wins more than 50 percent of the vote on Aug. 15, the top two finishers will proceed to a Sept. 26 runoff. The general election is Dec. 12.
McConnell is a snake in the grass Bama. Vote Mo Brooks. This is the same crap McConnell pulled against Chris McDaniel in Mississippi '14 to get Thad Cochran reelected.
Mo Brooks is not one of McConnell's yes boys. Luther Strange is very McCuckish.
Be careful Bama.

Are they lying about Brooks being a never-Trumper?

McConnell has no guiding principles.

I'm confused by your tactics

Sorry, but I'm not voting for a bum that will put a knife in Trump's back as soon as it's politically expedient. We have enough bitch arse republicans like that already

Mo Brooks came out in support of medical pot the other day, and some no-name State Senator dropped out and endorsed him.
Baby steps.

I've been wondering who I should vote for - this clears it up

Has no chance, imo. The perception in this state is that he let Governor Bentley off so Bentley would appoint him as Senator. Whether or not that is true is irrelevant. That is the perception of almost everyone you talk to about the Senate race, especially if they don't follow politics at all.
This is between Roy Moore and Mo Brooks. I am fine with either of these men, but Luther Strange attacking Mo Brooks is only serving to help Roy Moore's campaign. Roy Moore is being smart to stay out of this.

They're both awful. Roy Moore is a better option than this two losers.
