I had the same thought yesterday.

So did I.

Moore Capito is sufficiently moderate to be undefeatable. I suspect Justice is more likely to run for the other seat in 2024.

She isn't "sufficiently moderate" to be undefeatable; she's just a decent fit for West Virginia.

Her personality might be, but a libertarian moderate seems the exact opposite of most WV moderates.

no.

Moore Capito has a mixed record on abortion and SSM, while she is pretty right wing fiscally. That's a libertarian moderate to me.

No, he'll run for reelection. It would be nice if Earl Ray Tomblin ran against Captio, though.

This. Tomblin could go well and not put someone young and upcoming (Boothe?) out of a job.

Tomblin should run against Evan Jenkins.

More likely he runs for re-election.

I can't see a result that isn't like when Weld tried to run for Senate in MA.
