He’s gone. Another special election will have to be held in November in a state that has gone the longest without a GOP Senator (last one elected in 1956). Will Gov. Manchin risk a backlash having himself appointed ?

Well, right now, West Virginia's coal country is being rocked by "Cap & Tax" with mass layoffs. The Rats will have a very hard time keeping control of Byrd's seat in the Senate if it goes to a special election in November. Even Rockefeller is under severe pressure.
Consequently, I guarantee that Rat lawyers will starting working today trying to figure out ways in which to circumvent West Virginia law.

Here’a a trivia question:
Has there ever been a higher percentage of appointees/replacements serving in the US Senate since the 17th Amendment was passed?
What are we at now, ~10%?
