It wasn't just luck. Those AEA hit smear ads hurt Bradley Byrne very badly and nobody knew Bentley was complicit until after the election.

Bentley beat James by 200 votes to get into the runoff with Byrne. If Finebaum doesn't spend 2-3 days talking about James' quip about raising Saban's salary, I have no doubt James makes up that margin. The James voters weren't going to vote for Byrne so they consolidated behind Bentley. Bentley never had to run a serious campaign after that.

What you said is certainly true, but there was some luck involved.
