The Hillary propaganda machine is going into overdrive lambasting Obama for skipping West Virginia. Does Obama think West Virginians don't matter? Did Obama forget there is still a primary contest going on?
Let's be honest with ourselves, people. Obama was never going to win WV. If Hillary dropped out two months ago she'd probably still win WV. He isn't going to win WV in the fall. It's never been part of his path to the White House. So, he has no reason to campaign there.
If Hillary thinks every vote is so important, why didn't she campaign for the following contests:
Idaho
Nebraska
Kansas
Hawaii
D.C.
Illinois
North Dakota
Wyoming
Obama has run more of a 50 state strategy than Hillary, to bash him for ignoring WV is totally hypocritical and requires a HUGE cognitive dissonance on the part of Hillary supporters. Clinton is playing up WV because it is her best state, it's pure politics, and it's quite naive to believe otherwise.
