Filed in Uncategorized by on February 13, 2008 6 Comments

Donviti – I am displeased to find out that you have joined others at Delaware Liberal in disparaging my reputation because you have a problem with my so-called “voting record.” Frankly, I expected more from you. Although I’m from West Virginia I have a deep respect for your people and flatter myself to think that […]

So much at stake in this primary including the future of the “50 State Strategy”

Filed in National by on February 12, 2008 13 Comments

The last Democratic President to win the white house used the narrow electoral college strategy. Bill Clinton’s campaign picked up stream down the stretch and while winning only 43% of the popular vote, Clinton bested HW Bush 370 to 168 in the electoral college.
