Yeah, the guy that used the KKK as a springboard to get into politics.

From memory the primary gave Obama about 25% of WV's vote and 75% went to Hillary.  I would be extremely surprised if WV went for Obama.

From my personal feeling, no.  From what I see around here there are 75% more signs, stickers etc with McCain in yards, on cars etc.

I put a McCain sign in my yard almost a month ago.  There was only 1 Obama sign in the housing community when I put up mine.  Since then I have seen 14 more McCain signs and 0 more Obama signs.   

Last week I went to a town fair wearing a McCain/Palin Country First shirt on and got tons of positive comments. 

At a fair 2 weeks ago in Kingwood, WV just south of Morgantown there were a vast majority of McCain supporters over Obama.  Just from talking to people and seeing the literature, signs, stickers etc.

I'd say McCain is going to win WV, but not by much.

lota strong pro union folks in wva. lots of  "the gubmint will help " indoctrination
It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

keep in mind that for a few weeks prior to the election it is common for polls to swing wildly.

even more reason for it now.

i am hoping that americans think this through very carefully and vote accordingly.
