I find it interesting that Democrats are ganging up on Joe Manchin. Itâs not exactly surprising, since he hasnât been a team player for a while, despite the fact that he is not now and never will be a Republican. Itâs just not in his DNA. West Virginia is filled with blue dog, blue collar, but-not-progressive-blue citizens who remind me of my grandparents, Italian Americans who voted for Kennedy the Catholic and believed abortion was a sin, Social Security was important, dying for your country was an honor and the GOP was for country clubbing WASPS. We used to have Democrats like that in Pennsylvania too, which is really just a few less coal mines than West Virginia plus Philadelphia.
