The following article by Matthew Sheffield brings to the public's attention that Alabama Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore is a neo-Confederate.

The public is going to discover that there is an ideology against the 17th Amendment which has U.S. Senators directly elected and not selected by state legislators.
The public is going to discover that there is an ideology against women voting.
The public doesn't realize to the extent neo-Confederate ideology is percolating through the conservative movement.
This development is not without precedent. It used to be Republican office holders pandered to or joined the Council of Conservative Citizens and many were interviewed in the Southern Partisan.
The mainstream media wasn't interested. They were concerned about shaking out an extra electoral vote in some former Confederate state.
