Are West Virginia Supreme Court Justices elected? And if so, is this an election year? Can't answer the question, but it does sound like grandstanding, on his part.
Did John McCain get the CMoH for being held captive?
I mean no disrespect to the good Private Lynch, she deserves a lot, but not a soldiers highest honor.
My guess is this will not go too far.
Yes, W.Va. judges are elected. I don't know offhand when McGraw is up for reelection, but considering his political party affiliation (you can guess), he'll likely have no opposition. His brother is the state attorney general, and they're both bought and paid for by the personal injury lawyers.
