By Carole on Sep 1, 2010 | Comment »
West Virginia Governor and US Senate candidate Joe Manchin (D) is downplaying the latest poll showing his lead over Republican businessman John Raese is down to just 6 points (48% - 42%). But even though he claims "We feel really good where we are, where we're going and the support we have by all sides, Democrats and Republicans," Mr. Manchin sounded a bit more realistic when he added, "The only thing I can do is hopefully show them if you work together, if you try to fix problems, good things will happen."

In what his Republican opponent called a "hypersensitive reaction," Representative Joe Sestak (D-Pennsylvania) was able to get two television stations to stop running a campaign ad for two days. The stations have now reversed their decision and are running the ad that was paid for by the US Chamber of Commerce and claimed Mr. Sestak was in lockstep with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-California).
