538: Liberals Would Be Foolish To Primary Joe Manchin

[ProgressiveCanadian]

This forum loves to protect this coal loving water polluting Senator I see. Well too bad he's going to get primaried no matter what and it's obvious, he already invited the challenge.

Is everyone on this forum in the Establishment bubble? It's going to be a joy to watch the bubble pop when actual Americans go out to vote.

BUMP! Looks like Manchin isn't rulling out voting for Gorsuch. Still want this guy in your party?

I sure hope they do.

They wont.

Well I for one am glad Atlas forum does not have the same demographics as the WV Dem primary.

WV Democrats voted for Bernie. Either way Manchin will lose, if he wins the primary they will vote Republican because it would be a choice of a Republican-lite and a Republican. Just look at 2014 to see how this worked in Kentucky.

Irrelevant.

West Virginia also had a choice of Republican and Republican-lite in their gubernatorial election in 2016, and they chose the latter by a pretty decent margin.

Sounds like your proud to have a corporatist like Joe Manchin in office. Sadly for you he will not be in their for much longer.

Your way of thinking f-cked over the Republican Party and will do the same thing to the Democrats. Ha being 50+ votes is more important than ideological purity. Stop whining and targeting other progressives.

"f-cked over" is an interesting way to describe a party that has virtually unchecked control over both the federal, and vast majority of state, governments.

This. Also Jim Justice is also a another DINO who is obviously better than his opponent but that isn't saying much. Probably won due to his coal miners support with the same lies Trump used that coal jobs will come back, which they won't.

Yes let's disregard the recent Town Hall in WV with Bernie where he got Trump supporters to agree with him. Nothing Hillary could have even gotten close to do.
