Perhaps. But he is winning handidly.

2018-09-28 20:18:29 UTC  

Of course Manchin did just say he'd vote for Kavanaugh.

2018-09-28 20:18:39 UTC  

Who knows.

2018-09-28 20:18:50 UTC  

But if he breaks ranks and gets Kavanaugh confirmed, it would be huge.

2018-09-28 20:18:55 UTC  

It would've make any sense for WV to elect a Dem.

2018-09-28 20:19:03 UTC  

And he'd almost certainly be forced to swap parties.

2018-09-28 20:19:11 UTC  

The Dems would bring **pain**

2018-09-28 20:19:31 UTC  

His party switch seems unavoidable.

2018-09-28 20:19:46 UTC  

I dunno. He's a labor type IIRC.

2018-09-28 20:20:02 UTC  

I think the unions would need to change sides about that time.

2018-09-28 20:20:10 UTC  

Which I think is actually possible.

2018-09-28 20:20:11 UTC  

That's why I ask why WV voters would want to share any of that pain inflicted on Manchin.

2018-09-28 20:20:18 UTC  

uh oh, Tims giving his opinion on his main channel

2018-09-28 20:20:26 UTC  

The bastard

2018-09-28 20:20:26 UTC  

He's been doing that more.

2018-09-28 20:20:30 UTC  

Union rank-and-file changed sides in 2016.

2018-09-28 20:20:32 UTC  

That son of a bitch!

2018-09-28 20:20:32 UTC  

It's kinda annoying, IMO.

2018-09-28 20:20:34 UTC  

Somebody stop him!!

2018-09-28 20:20:40 UTC  

He’s actually taking a side??!!!

2018-09-28 20:20:45 UTC  

OUTRAGEOUS.

2018-09-28 20:21:00 UTC  

hes the next Bernie Sanders, imo

2018-09-28 20:21:16 UTC  

"Gimme ya money"

2018-09-28 20:21:22 UTC  

"Gonna give it to the blacks"

2018-09-28 20:21:56 UTC  

Tim owes us half of his beanie

2018-09-28 20:22:08 UTC  

@devpav not really, it's much more narrow, but they didn't flip sides completely. Unions still voted primarily Democrat. And it's only a couple unions that would flip in the near future. AFT is solidly Blue now more than ever.

UAW leadership has been praising Trump however. There could be a shift in the making. Republicans might have actually shot themselves in the foot passing Right to Work if it happens.

2018-09-28 20:22:25 UTC  

Everything is weird.

2018-09-28 20:22:45 UTC  

Manchin's unions (coal country) would be ones to flip.

2018-09-28 20:23:26 UTC  

likelihood of armed partisan mobs?

2018-09-28 20:23:30 UTC  

probably not

2018-09-28 20:23:32 UTC  

yet

2018-09-28 20:23:51 UTC  

We already have those in the streets of Berkley and Seattle.

2018-09-28 20:23:51 UTC  

i mean guns not what antfa uses

2018-09-28 20:23:58 UTC  

mobs? yes not yet. militant cells? sure.

2018-09-28 20:24:03 UTC  

Antifa carries guns in their stuff.

2018-09-28 20:24:08 UTC  

Concealed and likely illegal.

2018-09-28 20:25:29 UTC  

I'd say the coalminers unions would do anything for Trump nowadays.

2018-09-28 20:25:53 UTC  

Have they donated R yet?

2018-09-28 20:25:58 UTC  

That's the key point when it flips.

2018-09-28 20:26:15 UTC  

When they put money to the Republicans and are running ads in favor of the Republicans.

2018-09-28 20:26:23 UTC  

And getting absolutely excoriated in the press.
