I would have voted Manchin in the last poll, but here have nothing to lose by voting Johnson.

On December 9, 2010, Manchin was the sole Democrat to vote against cloture for the 2011 National Defense Authorization Act, which contained a provision to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell. In an interview with The Associated Press, Manchin cited the advice of retired military chaplains as a basis for his decision to vote against repeal.[40] He also indicated he wanted more time to "hear the full range of viewpoints from the citizens of West Virginia."[41] A day later, he was publicly criticized at a gay rights rally for his position on the bill.[42] On December 18, 2010, Manchin was not present for the vote to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," and the vote on the DREAM Act, regarding immigration.

Johnson

Manchin.

I don't know who Johnson is, but I'm guessing he is some left wing protest candidate.

Yeah, he is the Green Party candidate.

As was I.

Take that, moderate heroes and "practical" liberals!
