Now they just need Shelley Moore Capito to go against Manchin, and that would be a very strong ticket.

It's more likely Capito runs for re-election than challenges Manchin. If she wanted to run for the Senate, she would've done it this year, when the Republicans pulled out the chair for her.

She didn't want the ethical issue about running for Senate and reelection to her House seat at the same time though.

Considering who her opponent was, Ireland's 4 point victory wasn't too impressive.

Yes but that was before Obama became President though. The Democrats have lost a lot of strength by West Virginian standards since he was elected.
