I remember in 2008, people said this could be a swing state, or that it could be close.
We don't need West Virginia when we have Virginia 
Quite true. Nor do you need any number of states as long as you've got that one. The Republicans lost it in 2008 because they assumed it was safe, which just happens to be the same reason they lost the general election this year, and why they'll continue to lose national elections until they make serious and massive changes to their establishment, platform and strategy, as well as kick this whole Tea Party nonsense to the curb. And frankly, they deserve to lose if they can't accomplish those changes, and I certainly won't support them if they don't.
And I got off topic...anyway, WV...
