re: #132 EPR-radar
Republicans like assholes, and WV is infested with Republicans.
West Virginia democrats like conservative assholes, too.
Rule one: West Virginians hate outsiders.
Rule two: West Virginians particularly hate liberal outsiders looking down their enlightened noses at them.
Rule three: West Virginian democrats are no different from other West Virginians with regard to Rule Two.
Rule four: West Virginia politics does not operate according to your political calculus. What you predict will happen will not happen the way you think it will.
