Manchin is Really in a Pickle

[big_country90]

He votes to confirm Kavanaugh, but only after the deciding vote had already been determined. That has an effect on both sides. For his detractors, they feel his vote was inconsequential and done as a political calculation, knowing that the state of WV overwhelmingly supports Kavanaugh's confirmation. That's the camp I'm in.

OTOH, you have the more left leaning supporters who are now pissed at Manchin because he did vote to confirm Kavanaugh. I've heard many of these people say they simply won't vote in the Senate race now.

This race is going to be very interesting.

Oh and he leads his race by 8 points.

he's fine, he'll be voted back in. he'd still have been voted back in if he had voted the other direction, especially if kav was still voted in. if kav didn't make it, then there may be an issue.

he's a man with a paper asshole. the time shumer made him set down at the sotu address did it for me. this time, he had to get crying chuck's approval to vote how he did and the only reason crying chuck agreed to it was so it'd all but guarantee manchin would be elected again and that'd help towards the dems primary goal, taking the majority back in the november elections.

libs truly are disgusting pieces of mentally deranged trash.

Just think, you Repbus might have a shot if you hadn't nominated a carpetbagging, dope-pusher-enabling, giant bag of douche. The WV GOP will take a warm body and hope you dinguses hate queers and love guns enough to vote for them...never mind that most WV Democrats also hate queers and love guns. Strange state.

joe manchin has blown everybody and anybody with any clout to them in this state. he'll be in office as long as he wishes and people running against him are doing nothing but feeding the economy via campaign expense.

I couldn't care less where Morrisey is from or what industry he and his wife work. I care that he is a conservative and will vote my values far more often than Manchin.

Democrats didn't care that Rockefeller was a real carpetbagger. At least Morrissey has lived here for over a decade.

But he's a "good candidate". This has nothing to do with effectiveness or intelligence or being corrupt. When Repubs first starting winning some folks in WV the state party made a decision to enthusiastically back any shithead that stepped up to run. Morrisey is one of those.

2008 the best the GOP could manage to run for governor against Manchin was Russ fvcking Weeks lol. This is the shit I am talking about. It's been this way for a while.

Rockefeller isn't running. Quit living in the past. I know that is hard for anyone from Mingo County, every time you return home it's like you arrived in a time machine, but still....

Your support of Trump and now a dope pusher tells me your "values" are not Christian values, even though most WV Republicans like to claim that (frankly there are not enough wealthy people in WV to support the Country Club GOP). Then again you Bible Thumpers were always hypocrites at the polls. Let's be real: you wouldn't care if a candidate was a chomo as long as he was a conservative. If you lived in Alabama you would have had a Jones sticker on your car.

The people calling Morrisey a carpetbagger had no issues voting for Rockefeller and that's a fact. It's very relevant to this election, and exposes liberal hypocrisy yet again...Mr."Political Scientist."

All these people who say "but Manchin is from West Virginia and cares about West Virginians" are weak minded. Granted, it's a great campaign strategy. But Morrisey's beliefs are much more in alignment with the majority of WV now, and he will vote that way. Manchin rarely votes how the majority of WV wants him to. The state where Morrisey was born or his means of income are the least of my concerns.

I was never enthused for Rockefeller, and can't even recall if I ever voted for him (as I have said before, I never vote for every race, and considering his races were never in doubt I very well may have skipped that race every time but 1990, when I know I voted for John Yoder). I personally liked the guy, and I drank his liquor when I once had a chance to, but besides co-authoring CHIP he really never did much. Byrd was in there fighting for WV every day. That said, at least Jay moved to a really shitty town when he was young to be a volunteer for the poor, unlike Morrisey that moved to the nicest part of WV just to run for office....he didn't even bring his wife with him. Now that is a real carppetbagger.

And if the past of Rockefeller is relevant to this election, I am the King of Spain. Seriously, that's the kind of shit that back in the late 1800s would have made you a subject of study in eugenics.

"Mr Christian", what is relative to this election is you are doing what Jesus would do and supporting someone who took money to enable drug pushing. Jesus Christ loved opioids, and had a giant field of poppies that could feed 5000. As I said earlier, you are proud to belong to the party of pedos and now dope pushers, but you go to church on Sunday and the polls on Tuesday all smug like pulling the GOP lever somehow gets you through the Pearly Gates quicker. You'd be more honest if you burned some Ketoret in front of a statue of Ayn Rand. And maybe a bit cooler and a more in-depth student of your claimed religion if you knew what that is.

And pssst....I know anyone to the left of Robert Welch Jr. is a "liberal' to dimwits like you, but Jay wasn't really a liberal...he was a Republican before he got involved in WV politics (back then you would have been better off to run in WV as a queer than a Republican), he was sort of a warmonger and a member of the CFR . He's a Rockefeller, the family that helped the Nazis, that shouldn't be a shock.
