Hope you guys had as much fun tonight as I did.

Even though we didn't win in WV, we narrowed the margin from the primaries and beat Kerry's numbers.
WV is always a bit behind the curve and will join the rest of America next time, I promise.

On a better note, we did great in statewide races.

1. I just got back myself.
OMG, what an incredible night! I did shout out the window, 'PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!' and got some hoots back, along with some fireworks. I'm still in shock, but it's a very nice shock.

I didn't think we'd get WV, but it was closer than it has been in the past few elections.

3. "we did great in statewide races."
That's where everything starts.

You can build on that.

Give it another four years, watch, your state will dump their GOPers.

4. the rw threw everything they had at our AG, Darrell Mcgraw
He's a wonderful guy and a great consumer advocate.

The US Chamber of Commerce ran some of the dirtiest ads they could in an unprecedented blitz, but McGraw managed to beat them back
