A friend of mine told me if he got anything less that 70% it means the base is very unhappy and Joe is in trouble. I'm not into the politics that deep to know if that is correct, but it sounds right.

The Associated Press article, presumably written by Vicki *hic* Smith, says Mojo will emerge unscathed by the Garrison-Bresch scandal.
How about a little justice? Vote for Russ Weeks. ANYONE BUT MOJO!

"This will not affect Gov. Manchin whatsoever," said Marybeth Beller, a political science professor at Marshall University. "The matter appears resolved."

I don't know why all of those WVU officials are resigning. Joe and Heather seem fairly set on keeping their jobs. Once football season starts, no one will give a hoot about anything else anyway.

The Democrats in the state legislature agree. Nothing to see here. Let's move on. Business as usual:JustMike wrote:I don't know why all of those WVU officials are resigning.

http://www.getelephantwars.com/republicangazette.htmlDemocrat lawmakers on Tuesday refused to investigate the scandal at West Virginia University that led to the daughter of Gov. Joe Manchin being awarded an eMBA degree she did not earn.
Del. Jonathan Miller, R-Berkeley, requested the investigation by the Joint Judiciary Committee, and asked for bipartisan support, but Democrats voted down Miller and fellow Republicans in a voice vote, signaling their
willingness to turn a blind eye to the scandal in their efforts to protect the governor.
WVU receives about one-third of its annual operating budget -- or more than $200 million -- from state appropriations, but Democrats apparently do not believe that level of public funding includes any responsibility for oversight.
Some Democrats openly scoffed at Miller's resolution, while others appeared visibly angry, both during and after the vote.
