From what I understand, there are a lot of paleo-Democrats in West Virginia. Different breed than the rest of the Marx loving, leftist party.
That about right, Nan?
Yep, that’s right. WV is a conservative state with a “good ole boy” network that controls Charleston. A politician running for office has to “speak” conservative and they know exactly how to do that. Think “Boss Hog” and you will understand the democrat in WV. We Tea Parties are working at the local level to make inroads against the strangle hold on the State Legislature. The unions have always been part of the problem because of the supremacy of the coal industry. Since the “0” has killed the mines, things are looking up for changing things.
In our district we elected the first GOP delegate and the first direct delegate for our county ever. He is our Tea Party leader and a former Marine. He has 1/2 the county, so we elected another GOP delegate for the other half too.
Our plan is to take power from the bottom up. It will take time, but we are resolute.
