I'm not holding much hope for this, but hopefully the Dems can put up a good fight.

You wouldn't think WV would be an expensive state to run in, but I guess if you're buying ad time to cover the whole state you have to buy DC and Pittsburgh.

Makes more sense for someone they see as a potential star to stick with state politics, but then again that field is so crowded... he wants to lose respectably against SMC.

Most likely doesn't stand a chance against Capito, but if nothing else he's someone to keep in mind for future office.

Self-funding or not, the numbers Capito just put out are scary for any challenger:

Not even a decoy really. Just a symbolic candidate that hopes to get name recognition for a future run.

Put him against Morrisey when that seat is open.

I think Tennant is the only one with a chance of beating Capito. Everyone else is just a sacrificial lamb (Preservati) or just a really dumb choice (Rahall).

Are West Virginians still fans of pork?  Or have their gone completely against their own interests like the Deep South?
