The lead will probably go down a bit when Tomblin is tied to Obama in commercials but not enough for the Republican to have much of a chance. Assuming that Tomblin is the nominee of course.
Also, can we stop talking about Betty Ireland like she is in the Shelley Moore Capito category of WV Republicans? She did hold statewide elected office, but she beat Ken Hechler to get the job, and she only won the race 52% - 48%.
Republicans badly need a bench in WV. They better hope McKinley can hold down his seat post-redistricting.
edit: Also, in the election she won in 2004 Hechler had barely survived a primary challenge by Natalie Tennant(who currently holds the job), winning by something like 1000 votes.
