speaking of races i just saw an article saying Libertarians told Murkowski “no”. Is that new news?
A comment about this, from the late Senator Byrd: “Barbaric!”
The poor blue dogs died, died, died! The blue dogs diiiiieeeeeedddddd.
WOW!
West Virginia is one of the most Conservative and anti-Obama states in the Union. They should know that a vote for Manchin will be a vote for Obama. And thankfully it looks like the good folks there are starting to realize this.
I’ll believe it when I see it but if there’s any state that will turn the DC pollsters on their backs, it would be West by-God Virginia.
Mountaineers are always Free.
Manchin has not been all that bad as governor, IMO. I can see Mountaineers not being too fond of losing him to the Senate. Should Raese win, he would be the ONLY Republican to hold a state-wide office in WV.
I think Raese should run some ads saying, “Yeah Joe is a great governor, but in the Senate he would only be the most junior vote for Obama’s agenda - cap and tax, Obamacare, amnesty. Let’s keep him here as governor, where he has done such a great job!”
I think trying to tear down Manchin personally would backfire, especially since he is so popular. The best play would be to point out that he would not be in charge in the Senate, and so he would not be able to accomplish anything other than support an agenda the voters hate.
I sure hope the dem goes down, but I know nothing about Raese. Is there much if any Rino stench on him?
WoW!Winning this one would be huge!
