From the top down, party will have little or no meaning for voters in November in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia.<\/p>\n
Let’s start at the top.\u00a0President Obama (D), a former constitutional law professor, shreds the Constitution by personally ordering extra-judicial killings.<\/a><\/p>\n Is that a Democrat or a Republican virtue?<\/p>\n Senator Joe Manchin (D) promotes coal industry mountaintop removal and natural gas industry hydraulic fracturing.<\/p>\n Is that a Democrat or Republican virtue?<\/p>\n And then you have Stacy Dugan. Dugan is President of the Morgan County Commission.<\/p>\n Dugan says she’s a Democrat.<\/p>\n But she often aligns herself with Morgan County Republicans.<\/p>\n Most recently, on August 12, Dugan attended the Morgan County Republican Party’s kick off campaign event at the Triple B Arena. Triple B is Republican Bob Ford’s place.<\/p>\n The event was sponsored by the Morgan County Republican Club — Debra McLaughlin, Ronnie McIntire, Greg Miller, Vince Shambaugh, Glen Stotler and Bob Ford.<\/p>\n Ford is the former Democrat — now Republican — running against Democrat County Commissioner Brenda Hutchinson.<\/p>\n Remember Bob? He is the former County Commissioner who sued the County in 2005 while he was on the Commission and cost the county $30,000.<\/p>\n Just out of curiosity, we wanted to know from Dugan — what message was she sending by attending the Bob Ford kick off Republican campaign event?<\/p>\n Is she supporting Bob or Brenda?<\/p>\n Dugan did not respond to our e-mail seeking comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From the top down, party will have little or no meaning for voters in November in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia.
