1. Good news

He was up by about 11 at one point
That he is over 50% is the most important thing
I will admit I donated money to him a few times in September and will likely one more time; along with Heitkamp, Tester, Rosen (this race is becoming disturbingly questionable), Nelson, Casey as well as Senate candidates in Tennessee, Arizona and Texas

I have been impressed at how much information I've been getting from both Heitkamp and Munchin after donating. I have heard back little from Tester or Casey which surprises me

2. Didn't he vote FOR Kavanaugh? Correct me if wrong...

4. Yes

3. He got endorsements from Nick Saban(Alabama) Huggins (WVU) and Jerry West

They are from WV.

They filmed a TV commercial too.

5. This is good news

Things are looking up.

6. my nightmare.. he wins

and Dems win a 51 seat majority. Manchin switches to Republican. I don't trust him.

[Staph]

7. I don't know why this rumor of Manchin changing parties keeps popping up.

It. Is. Not. Going. To. Happen.

8. And trump

Wasn’t. Going. To. Win.

9. Just because you say he's going to switch parties doesn't make it true.

Unless you have reason to back it up, you're just speculating based on no proof.

10. Colorado's Senator Campbell did it in the nineties

with no warning whatsoever. I don't trust Manchin. He sounds more like a Republican than a Democrat. Just my opinion and I'm entitled to it, just like you're entitled to yours.

[bearsfootball516]

11. He's also running in West Virginia. I don't think he could win running a truly progressive campaign.

I suppose you don't know if you don't try, but this is a race where he's been comfortably ahead for a long time, so whatever he's doing is working.

[mountain grammy]

12. He has the support of WV Democrats.. his support actually went down

when he voted to confirm Kavanaugh.. I'm glad I don't have to vote for him. It would be a severe breach of my conscience and I'm not sure I could do it. He is supporting evil.

13. Trump

Didn't. Win. They. Stole. The. Election.

[mountain grammy]

15. True that..

but we can say it until we're blue and he's still the president and he definitely "won" West Virginia.

[edhopper]

16. Yes

I just can't stand the hearing about Trump winning, as if the voters picked him.

[mountain grammy]

17. West Virginia did that's for sure..

but I'll never believe he won PA, MI, or WI.. stolen election..

[edhopper]

18. QFT!

14. Manchin is probably the worst Dem Senator

but we need him to win to have a majority. Who runs the Senate matters for committees and what bills come up, even if Manchin often votes with the Republicans.
Also, if he changes Parties, he will probably be primaries by a more conservative Repuke.
Repug votes are now very, very radical right.
