Is any other (serious) Republican even going to run?

I think if Jenkins loses to someone like Pat Morrissey than Manchin will be getting the shot glasses ready (assuming he wins his own primary).

But, if Jenkins isn't the nominee, I'll be backing Manchin. I like both, but I like Jenkins more.

Is Jenkins really that strong of a candidate? If so, why?  Manchin seems to be guaranteed to win in 2018.

I just unfamiliar with him.


Jenkins represents WV-03 which was historically democrat, until he won it. He defeated a 30+ year incumbent in that seat and is one of the few party switchers (Jenkins was a dem until 2012) to make a name for himself in recent years without suffering some losses along the way.
