Howard Dean warns liberal 'Yankees' to stay out of Alabama; Alyssa Milano hardest hit?

We hate to say it, but Gov. Howard Dean is correct here: Dems, if you want to win in Alabama, stay the hell out of the state:

This is just what we do NOT need. Alabama is not a place to bring in a lot of Yankees to tell them what they need to do. Send Jones money!! https://t.co/rsT5pg36el

Dean was responding to a Twitter user from New York who said, “We Dems need to get buses down to Alabama now to knock on doors for @GDouglasJones. This is a winnable seat & policy game changer. Let’s organize this.”

Howard's making sense here

That wouldn't go over so well https://t.co/sNbvNlwHv8

This is exactly right. Nothing is more annoying than Yankees who move down here and then tell us southerners what we're doing is wrong…and why it's so much better up north. That's definitely that case in the Deep South. https://t.co/DcZ130zpMk

This. I've been hearing about a lot of poor strategic decisions from Dems. As a native Alabamian and political scientists, money is the best thing outside folks can do to help Jones. https://t.co/y6F0i8EBCn

Hardest hit might be Alyssa Milano, who traveled to Georgia to try to elect Jon Ossoff, but failed. Here she is promoting Moore’s opponent, Doug Jones, and calling on people to volunteer:

While everyone is talking about what an evil man #NoMoore is, I’d like to direct you to his opponent @GDouglasJones and all the good he’s done in his life: pic.twitter.com/x8AzlIxJEh

Maybe she’ll travel to Alabama, too?

FWIW, the latest poll has Jones up by 4:

New Alabama poll: Doug Jones 46%, Roy Moore 42%. First poll to show Jones in the lead. https://t.co/HVJlVUjucf
