Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountains, Shenandoah river
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
All my memories, they gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eyes
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the mornin' hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And drivin' down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong

1. Wonder how that flipped so dramatically. Great news!

👍

[Logical]

2. Is that your headline? Or the stories? I notice you like "shock". nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

4. I am shocked. I actually thought that would be safe territory for Bernie.

But I remember reading that Hillary did very well in rural Virginia counties that border West Virginia and that might foretell West Virginia results.

I actually dated a coal miner's daughter and know folks who lived in the holler.

7. Yeah

It's the whitest state in the South and seems tailor-made for his trade argument.

[Still In Wisconsin]

8. Bernie is done. Stick a fork in him and his movement.

By the way, egg ALL OVER my face as I have spent a LOT of money and time trying to get him elected.

Enjoy the victory and good luck in the GE. I will vote for Hbecause I am a democrat, but I understand, as does any rational Bernie supporter, that our time for participating in this election ended las night.

13. ...says the person with twelve posts.

[MadBadger]

9. It's also a closed primary if I'm not mistaken.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. Mixed, indys can vote.

[DCBob]

3. Southerners don't count!

Wow.. great news.

[Recursion]

5. Oh, wow. That's a surprise

Sanders can't afford to not win WV big.

6. Please see Post 4

Thank you in advance.

12. The Clinton brand is probably still strong there nt

14. I never believed that one WVA poll from a month or so ago.

[TheFarseer]

15. We're at the stage where

People think they get a God damn gift card to Starbucks if they vote for the winner. She said she was going to put coal miners out of business and if I'm not mistaken, the only job in WV not involved in coal mining is football coach at Marshall. She's going to win. You can stop posting every favorable poll. You're just giving people false hope that they're going to get free coffee.

16. 93% white, heavily rural, guns all over the place. where's the shock? nt

[Gothmog]

17. Thanks for posting

18. It may be that the mood of the country is shifting,

as Hillary continues to win primaries where many thought she'd lose. It's a classic phenomenon. Some call it momentum. Others call it the bandwagon effect, but it's real and can change how elections go.

I wouldn't call WV. I'm not from there, and am not at all familiar with Democratic politics there. We'll find out, though, soon enough whether this poll is accurate or not.
