Joe Manchin of West Virginia.. before you laugh, remember where Bill was from..  so far, Joe looks to be a pragmatic centrist with plenty of "good ole boy" sex appeal, he's a tough task of achieving economic recovery in a depressed state ahead, so we'll se how he does.. i do think he's fairly liberal in his social agenda.. the fact that WV voted for Dush, yet elected a dem govn'r by some 20% gives us much hope.. whatever the reasons they went with Bush this time ( i do personally think it was the bloody "security" issue), they're sane enough to consider their economic interest..
