Re: West Virgina Results Bodrul wrote: Theyre dumb fuckers in general tho to be fair. I read 72% of whites in west virgina not being college educated, these are the people voting for Hillary. The sad thing really is that these thick people actually believe that Hillary understands whats its like to be poor and/or "working class" but in reality she's ALWAYS been rich and priveliged. These uneducated fools stay losing.  Yeah what ever Bodrul this is an ignorant statement. WV Kentucky and Western Pennsylvania have always had a unique political standing. It started out as the early frontier tested out George Washington's authority with the Whiskey rebellion West Virgina separated from Virginia to join the Union and entered the world of prosperity thanks to coal and then steel which coal is needed to make than came Oil in the late 1800's in Western Pennsylvania helping to make some of the richest people ever and then in the past 40 years has everything dwindling away. I find WV to be very depressing but it does have some beautiful parks but I have to say that WV has gotten better in the last 15 years if only by a little bit. It isn't representative of the rest of the US and the state is only worth 5 electoral votes(which would of given Gore the election in 2000) but still not that many. It does face problems of poverty, education and keeping people there(people graduate from college and move elsewhere). Do It isn't necessary to insult WV.

I thought Edwards voters favored Obama....JK I suspect the smae thing happened in NC> Edwards should not of dropped out but I guess it was a money thing. Scary thing is what will happen if no candidate in the GE gets 271 EVs. Barr is very likely entering the Race and I do expect him to do well in TN, KY, WV, and maybe ID and Utah.

He is going against Mike Gravel as well. Amazing how they are on two complete opposite sides of the political spectrum but both fit being a libertarian.

Re: West Virgina Results Clinton - 223,509 (67%)
Obama - 86,474 (26%)
Edwards - 24,009 (7%)
I had a feeling Edwards could finish in the high single digits, he may get up to 8% with 7% left to report.

Re: West Virgina Results My 71-26-3 prediction seriously underestimated the Edwards vote. 26% for Obama was exactly spot on.
