41% of WV Democrats Vote for Prisoner over Obama
From USAToday:
President Obama is so unpopular with some West Virginia Democrats that they voted for a prisoner in yesterday's primary.
A prisoner in Texas, no less.
Keith Judd, who is serving time at the Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution in Texas for making threats, actually got 41% of the vote against Obama in the West Virginia Democratic primary.
Full Story
I'm guessing that Pres. Obama won't be spending much campaign time in West Virginia this fall. |

You can't attack people's livelyhood (even if it is a dying industry) and expect people to support you.

WV will never amount to anything if the state doesn't move its economy beyond resource extraction (and profit extraction out of state).

The only part I disagree with Obama on the policy is his arrogant attitude. |
