Reply #44: I'll take a different democrat...

I am sure there are plenty of fine democrats in WV that could have replaced him, and had his exact same voting record if not better.

You say you will take a bad dem over a repub robot. That isn't necessarily a bad choice.

I will take a good dem over a bad dem, and good dems don't associate with the KKK. I think that is a better choice. WV is almost always a solid dem state. Another solid dem could have that seat quite easily.

And when one does, I think more dems are likely to be thankful for Byrds service, but happy a former KKK member is out of the party.
