GOP Senate Nominee Roger Moore Accused of Sexually Assaulting 14 yo

 Roy Moore the Openly rabidly anti gay ex judge also known as  the 10 commandments judge who
was suspended two times.

Roy Moore, Alabama's Republican nominee for Senate, was accused of sexually assaulting a woman when she was 14 years old. And now Republicans are rebuking Moore after the allegations of sexual assault and calling on him to leave the race if the allegations are true.

Why it matters: An Alabama elections spokesperson said it's "too late" for Moore to be removed from the ballot, but the statements from Republicans suggest they don't want him running and that he could add a negative image to their party.

What they're saying:

• Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell: "If these allegations are true, he must step aside."
• Sen. Lisa Murkowski said, "I'm horrified and if this is true he needs to step down immediately." She also saidshe has spoken to Luther Strange about becoming a write-in challenge, ultimately challenging Moore in the Dec. 12 election. 
• Sen. Jeff Flake: "If there is any shred of truth to the allegations against Roy Moore, he should step aside immediately."
• Sen. John Cornyn, who endorsed Moore and is listed on his website, said the allegations are "deeply disturbing." 
• Sen. David Perdue called the allegations "devastating" and said Moore should withdraw if they're true. 
• Sen. Pat Toomey: "If there's a shred of truth to it, then he need to step aside."
• Sen. Richard Shelby: "If that's true, then he wouldn't belong in the Senate."
• Sen. Mike Lee: "If these allegations are true, Roy Moore needs to step down."
• Sen. Tim Scott: "If they're accurate, he should step aside."
• Sen. Mitch McConnell: "If these allegations are true, he must step aside."
• Sen. Cory Gardner, chairman of national republican senatorial committee: "If these allegations are found to be true, Roy Moore must drop out of the Alabama special Senate election."
• Sen. Susan Collins: "If there is any truth at all to these horrific allegations, Roy Moore should immediately step aside as a Senate candidate."
• Sen. Rob Portman: "It was very troubling ... if what we read is true and people are on the record so I assume it is..." Moore should step aside.
• Sen. Susan Collins: "If there is any truth at all to these horrific allegations, Roy Moore should immediately step aside as a Senate candidate."
