Yup, and it's there for anyone with a memory.

(Reliable Democrat, no matter what he pretends) Manchin is the new Ross Perot.

The idea is to take GOP voters disaffected from Mister Trump, and ensure a Dem win, I would wager.

Many fine folks hereabouts somehow think that the Dem voters would go for Manchin as well. Talk to them. They fear Trump more than anything, they'll vote Dem. And obediently so.

I agree, Manchin would take Dems and GOP in very tiny percentages. Quite a few White Dem voters would vote Manchin as they won't vote for Trump but don't ant to vote for the senile old man. If he peels off some of the under 30 vote, that would come 75% from Dems.
