Manchin is a fraud. I don’t know anything about Justice.
I agree with you. Yes there are some people who claim they would rather just have a Democrat instead of a less than pure conservative Republican.
It’s still a good outcome if a less than perfect Republican can oust a Democrat. Joe Manchin definitely is vulnerable.
Honestly this guy knows who voted for him, it was the government employees and Union employees of the coal and steel industry in West Virginia. Most of them are Hillbillies Ridge Runners or whatever you want to call him that love guns hunting and fishing. They’re all big drinkers and bluegrass foot stopping Mad Men.
If he only stuck to his base, that would be one thing but he loves the Democrat Party more than he loves his voters. Being a Democrat is a badge of honor, and identity, his religion.
“It’s OK to have a RINO from California or New York but certainly NOT from West “by God” Virginia.
It is so sickening to see states like South Carolina, Georgia Louisiana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Ohio, Tennessee or North Carolina sending an endless number of RINO senators.”
100% this.
But the Ronna Romneys on this site will happily jump aboard any RINO train (Justice, in this case) and declare that NO conservative is electable ANYWHERE in this country. Not even West Virginia.
As RINOs go, Justice probably wouldn’t be the worst of them in the Senate. But to assume he has a 100% chance of beating Manchin while an actual conservative (Alex Mooney) has a 0% chance is stupid.
