Easy to see what happens to a state where the dems have control of the political process. WV politics is just like Chicago. We keep trying to take down the good ole boy network, but it’s so entrenched it seems hopeless.
“We keep trying to take down the good ole boy network, but it’s so entrenched it seems hopeless.”
That’s how the G.O.B. network works...
You make the locals SO DEPENDENT on you for their livelyhood and jobs that they don’t DARE vote you out, and others crush your opponents for you, in return for future favors.
Only ONE potential Candidate in this race has stood up to, and taken down a GOB network. Any guesses who?
I watched Evan Bayh come in to office as Gov of Indiana, and rip apart the GOB network and political favoritism of BOTH parties, and I’ve seen it done in the early 80’s in my own hometown.
It simply takes someone with the stones to do it, who isn’t looking to simply replace one network, with another..
