I just read Mike Oliverio's Web Page - I won't be voting for him

His web page, linked below, lists his positions on various issues. Make up your own mind. I won't be voting for him. On virtually every issue he looked like Republican-light to me, that is where he wasn't just plain pandering. Mollihan doesn't exactly make my heart sing with joy, but his voting record is commendable enough. What I wouldn't give for a Congressman, or woman, who actually made me want to vote for them. At any rate if you are in the 1st District and are interested in the would-be Congressman, here's the link: http://www.mikeoliverio.com/issues.php

1. Consider yourself lucky.

I'm in the second Congressional district. The only Democrat running this year against Shelley Moore "my daddy the gov deserves his law license back even if he did serve three years in federal prison for extortion" Capito is Virginia Lynch Graf. Ms. Graf is a former nun, elementary school principal, and has never held political office. She is unknown outside the eastern panhandle, and according to her website, has had no campaign events outside of that area aside from Women's Day at the Legislature in January.

I will vote for Ms. Graf, but I want Anne Barth back!

2. I just voted for Mollohan

Oliverio seems like nothing but a Teabagger in a Dem disguise.

6. Glad I can vote for Rahall.

He's not green on coal but I wouldn't really expect him to be but on just about everything else he's about as good of a dem as can be.

I love to go backpacking and Rahall was responsible for getting way more land in the Cranberry and Dolly Sods area declared wilderness.
