I voted for Byrd in hindsight, but I would haved voted for Revercomb at the time since I come from the only Republican family in West Virginia (my great-grandpa was a member of the state party committee in the fifties, IIRC).

Byrd, for all his flaws, was a masterful Senator, and I do admire shrewd politicians despite their awfulness (KKK, pork, backstabbing Jimmy Carter, etc). I guess I like Robert Byrd in the same twisted way I like Nixon.
