Debbie Now Manchin will walk into Byrd's job in the senate and be there forever! Any educator or family member who would vote for him for any job deserves to be treated as idiots. If we banded together we could deny him this seat and send a powerful message to the next Gov. of WV. But I have no hope that we will do it. I know I will not vote for him and t...See More
