Replacing Byrd isn't as easy as it once looked

Replacing Byrd isn't as easy as it once looked

Post by (ugg boots gnstig) Oct 2010

Gov. Joe Manchin III (D) is enormously popular in West Virginia - yet he is in a competitive Senate race against perennial candidate John Raese (R), who has lost three previous statewide campaigns.

Raese's ads casting Manchin as a potential "rubber stamp" for President Obama in the Senate have forced Manchin to move to the right on a series of issues in this race to replace the late Robert C. Byrd (D), who held this seat for more than 50 years.

In the House, 3rd District Rep. Nick I. Rahall II (D), who has represented the southern part of the state since 1977, faces the same challenge: Voters like him personally but are skeptical of Democratic policies. Republican Elliott "Spike" Maynard has tried to link Rahall to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Democrats are also struggling harder in the 1st District. State Sen. Mike Oliverio (D) and former state delegate David McKinley (R) are dueling over who is more conservative. Gov.
