West Virginia & Gas Tax Holidays
“I think Democrats across the country tomorrow will be asking themselves why Senator Obama — with all of his money, with all of the great press, with voters being told he was the inevitable nominee — why did Senator Obama lose West Virginia by 15 points or so?”
—Howard Wolfson
No, actually, Mr. Wolfson, they’ll just be thinking that most of the people in West Virginia are stupid ass-backwards hicks. Or perhaps that’s too generous and most Democrats won’t give a passing thought to what happens in West Virginia. What does happen in West Virginia, anyway? Does anyone but the people in West Virginia even know or care? Probably not.
It’s funny how Hillary Clinton has to scrounge for whatever little support she can muster – such as in inconsequential places like West Virginia, and through meaningless policies like the gas tax holiday. As if people will say:
“Hey, we’re thousands of dollars in debt, but you’ve saved us $70! Thanks Mrs. Clinton!”
Really, how does anyone take this woman seriously?
