I've heard some Dmocrats say they can rebound after Obama leaves office, but I just don't see it.

The damage has been done, and I don't think much of it is reversable (for the foreseeable future).

Well, they'll probably rebound somewhat, since there's nowhere to go but up at this point. But it will still be solidly Republican.

The Democrats will gain some ground in WV-02, compensated for by loses in WV-03 and will remain 60-40 Republican. It is the pattern we have seen in many Southern states. GOP start out in the most metropolitcan area, take over rural area, dominate rural area nd GOP support declines in the metro area. The problem for WV is that its populatin is not growing like the others in question and thus unless its cities gets bigger, there isn't much hope for the "new majority in cities and suburbs come 2022 crowd". Only with an embrace of the Snowstalker aproach would something different than that possibly transpire.

You think West Virginia would support communism?
