82. There is no loyalty to the Republican Party in WV...never has been

For all intents and purposes, there is no Republican Party in West Virginia. We are a one-party state and have been since Reconstruction.

However, there is loyalty to certain Republicans. See: Moore, Arch. See also: Bush, George W.

I don't think George W. Bush could win re-election in West Virginia right now. But I wouldn't know for sure.

McCain is strong in West Virginia not because he is Republican. He is not strong in West Virignia because he is associated with George W. Bush. He is not strong in WV because his position on the Iraq War.

McCain is strong in West Virginia because he spent five years getting tortured by Communists.

That's it. That's the reason.
