Pedophiles, murderers, physical and sexual assaulter, all of these among the most recent candidates they've supported. The Republican party is an absolute disgrace.

If O'Rourke, Sinema, and whichever Stacey wins the GA primary are smart, Don Blankenship will be a household name among the Johnson/McMullin/reluctant Trump voters of Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and Phoenix.

What are the odds of an angry Trump tweet after Blankenship is nominated? I can't wait for him to be proven impotent in another Senate race.

Attempts by the president to direct the congressional party rarely pay off.  LBJ was the last to pull it off and he was a former Senate Majority Leader.  Historically, even FDR and Teddy Roosevelt couldn't close the deal on this.

Disappointing, but he's acceptably mediocre. Jenkins is the real one to worry about tonight.

With Swearengin's overperformance, keep in mind that the vote currently reporting is disproportionately from the county with the state's largest college and the only county with significant DC metro influence.

A bit late, but McConnell seems to be taking "Cocaine Mitch" seriously, or with a glimmer of humour, tucked within his neck folds.

I still wouldn't be too surprised if Morrisey eked out a win, but yeah, Blankens*** is favored going in. And most Republicans (including McConnell) will support him, even if they do so begrudgingly. You see, he has this magical (R) next to his name which is kind of a big deal.

Moral of the story: Never assume people "wouldn't be THAT stupid", or they'll say "don't tell me how stupid I can be!"

GE is probably Tilt/Lean D now, would have been at least Likely D with Blankenship and Tossup with Jenkins.

I was amazed by the number of people who seemed to genuinely believe that Blankenship would win the primary, even though it was pretty obvious all along that he wouldn't.

I could see Ojeda narrowly winning while Manchin narrowly loses.  Manchin needs to be concerned about the north.

They WANTED him to win. Welcome to Atlas
