WV was always on borrowed time. An ambitious Dem party can pick up Senate seats in other places if they go on the offensive.

He constantly casts question upon the party's progressive initiatives and tries to make himself look like the only "sane" Dem. in the room. He forces the party into corporate leaning deals and in the absence of them obstructs and kills legislation every other member supported, making the party look divided and chaotic (even though it's only him causing the problem). The party would fare better on a political level if Manchin either started identifying as an independent or just left Congress. --- 1 line break(s), 121 characters allowed ... Copied to Clipboard!

West Virgina has been historically dominated by democrats. It used to be among the most solidly democratic states in the country. The switch is a recent phenomena there. It rather surprises me the national democratic party has been content to watch the state party collapse.

Losing a nominal Dem for a Republican is bad no? Manchin and Justice are literally interchangeable. Justice used to be a "Democrat" too. I think it is better to not have a fake democrat constantly in the news with "concerns" about their party though, especially when Republicans are always lockstep behind whatever evil they want to do. It also means that people won't have false expectations from the Senate based on just what the numbers look like. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. ...
