Clinton won WV by 15 points in 1996. Gore lost it by 6 points in 2000. Best theory for that 21-point difference: Married women in WV appalled by Clinton's conduct and the Democrats' wink-and-a-nod tolerance of it. Guns and coal didn't change that much as an issue in four years. — PolitiTweet.org

@BresPolitico I think 2008 was the last year the Dem ticket campaigned there. (I only remember bc Biden called it “West by God Virginia”)
