Cool, there's a thread for West Virginia Cheesy I'll just give my opinion quickly. I support Moore-Capito for Senate, McKinley for WV-01, Jenkins for WV-03, and I'm undecided in WV-02 for now.

Shelley is a great person and candidate for WV, and despite her Pro-Choice stance, I agree with her on most issues. I think only she could beat Tennant. I think she will beat out Pat McGeeghan (nice enough guy, but should've stayed in the House of the Delegates and built up his resume).

Rep. McKinley is possibly endangered. WV's longtime State Auditor, Glen Gainer is the Dem's guy. Gainer has corruption/ethics issues but he may still put up a strong fight.

I don't know much about the WV-02, but I am leaning towards Charlotte Lane who the Establishment seems to like. I dislike Alex Mooney though. He's only been living in WV for a small amount of time. He carpetbagged from Maryland. If Mooney is the nominee, I can definitely see Nick Casey (D) winning with like 52%.

I think Evan Jenkins has a shot of winning in WV-03, but it won't be easy. Rahall has been around forever.

I'm an establishment conservative (and registered Republican) but I have an I-WV to protest certain Tea Party people in my party.

While I understand, I oftentimes find myself just as angered at the establishment as I am at the grassroots. Of course, I became political in 2005, when it was the excesses of establishement power and corruption that was destroying the Party so that is not surprising. 

Welcome to the Forum just the same. Smiley

Thank you Smiley and I get what you're saying. The establishment is far from perfect. I like figures from both sides of the party and dislike figures from both sides of the party.
