re: You might want to develop your search skills. A simple search of the candidates name would tell you where he is from, what district he represents, and what party he belongs to. Its really simple, and when you are done, you will be a better informed citizen. None of us can be expected to know each of the current members of Congress or to know the particulars of their individual races, but its so easy these days to become an expert. After a simple Google search on the name, go to the Cook Political report and learn about his district. Before long, you will know more than anyone in your neighborhood.)))

TOTALLY disagree with your scold. Why make someone waste their time on Google when a simple parenthetical WV CD in the headline would convey the information?

My pet peeve here are those who post info like "Murder in Greenville" only to find that it is a TV station with no state identifiers. Do a Google search on how many Greenvilles there are in the US, since you like to waste your own time.

There is only one Greenville. That would be Greenville, NC. Home of the ECU Pirates. :>) What a place.
