Hell, I could have told them West Virginia is TRUMP COUNTRY!
Yep! They are right now panel testing various shades of lipstick to dress up the old fat pigs we've been swindled by for the last 20 years.
Hillary and dems in general have no shot in WV... the war on coal has ensured that fact for at least a generation.
It has been a looong time since the Republican party has done ANYTHING to earn my trust.
Coal country will be as red as it ever has been this year. Blood red.
If they can find a way
What this fails to mention that, with the exception of MA, WV was the most Democratic state in the country until 2000. It went for Carter twice, Dukakis and Clinton twice. If Al Gore had won WV, as history predicted he should, he would have been President. It was Al Gore’s anti-gun policies that cost the Democrats WV and now Hillary solidifies this.
Not surprising. Old style Conservative (yellow/blue dog) Democrats still exist in numbers in WV, KY and other states. Keep in mind that Kim Davis was a Democrat, and Conservative Democrats in KY gave Matt Bevins his surprise gubernatorial win there last year.
However also keep in mind that these are states that are “Blue” locally and state wide, but very Red for national elections. Any GOP nominee is going to carry WV, KY, TN and other similar states easily. So the question is whether Trump can pull similarly minded Conservative Dems over to him in places like FL, MI, WI and even NY. In enough numbers to swing those states to him.
Romney won West Virginia by 27 % in 2012. The big question is will Trump win West Virginia by 22 % or 32 % ?
Really, who cares?
