Not to mention sore loser laws are Constitutionally dubious.

Deep State Blankenship has always been in this to re-elect Manchin. Now he makes that crystal clear.

It is what it is, I have to accept that and the people in WV will make the final call.

I accept the result of the primary.

President Trump made his call on the matter in the primary without endorsing the other two candidates including the winner Morrisey.

He dissed Blankenship and Blankenship obviously felt burned.

By the way, Blankenship blames the federal regulations for the deadly mine accident, not the federal laws and regs against him in criminal prosecution.

All those rules and regs make criminals out of people in this country from coast to coast like farmers, ranchers, small business owners.

There are a lot of aggrieved people out there.

When do the federal agencies disappear?

The GOP keeps the agencies in place and their regs help bigger business crush smaller ones.

#41. Someone has to put him in a cage, perhaps a padded one.
Or, let him loose in one of his mines and hope he falls in.

Otherwise for W. Va. Republicans, the post-election cry will be “Elevator, Elevator, we got the shaft!”

He’s a spoiler. By design he’s trying to secure a Dem win in a red state.

They do. He’s trying to circumvent it using a federal judge.

The Republicans should encourage some environmentalist to run on the Green Party ticket.

The Democrats are using this tactic more and more, get a third party FAKE republican to run and drain votes from the Real Repub candidate. The Republican Party which only cares about K-Street and making $$$ for the 000.1% doesn’t reciprocate.

Because he couldn’t afford a few million out of his own fortune to run. He doesn’t need help

What a fool. Democrat plant is likely. But hopefully, Trump will do as he did in the primary and warn against any insurgency and to help HIM and the Party win even bigger.

If PDJT can win the presidency on a wave of populism, then so can Blankenship.

Many have not yet adjusted to the new paradigm of populist voter blocks.

No delusion necessary.

No. Murkowski cheated and was selected by the Secretary of State of Alaska to represent them after losing to the Tea Party candidate.

The law stated that write in candidates had to correctly spell the name. More than 10% of her votes, enough to cost her the election, were misspelled, and thus invalid and illegal, and they were certified anyway.

At some point, the cheating, fraud and insanity needs to stop.

Someone pointed out that third party people are all kooks. Why? Because we don’t believe that the Dems are worth two sh!ts and the GOP-e is literally one step behind the DNC traitors? We should be supporting a strong third party that would be able to take on the GOP-e and the Demotraitors. I know I am, and you can look at my posts and see I’m not a “kook”. I support the Veteran’s Party of America. We’re trying to get ballot access in all 50 states, and I know we’ll be successful at some point. The two-party system has to be stopped.
