Another thing is that Manchin isn’t a young man (in his 60s), and he would be replacing the seniormost Senator as the juniormost in a body in which one needs years of service to obtain clout. I have to wonder if he wants to leave the Governorship at a time he has a lot more power and influence to be a total backbencher (and at a time when his party may be the minority come January). If he wants to be a center-right Senator, he’s also going to be thoroughly out of his element in DC as a Democrat. The irony is that he’d make a better Republican Senator than the likes of Kirk, Castle or the Maine Twins.

Does the Gov. of WV want the title of ‘QUITTER”?

seems the DemocRATS like to use that term for Sarah Palin, our next President...

The late Sen.Bryd is a prime example of ‘TERM LIMITS’
I feel its been at least five years since Bryd functioned mentally.
Let us all ‘wake up’ and vote these old timers OUT....
