Whether Blankenship is the ogre against the working man or not I don’t know! (Meaning I have no idea if his conviction was a set up!) The bottom line is few to none southern WV’ians will vote for him in the general. He will lost to Manchin! I really don’t understand why he is running. He knows this as well a I do. This is not the way you clear your name if that is his goal. It’s very odd!
The Dems paid him to run and be a spoiler. That’s my guess.
