cricket, I agree totally with you. Kessler is a total waste. He gives other West Virginians a bad name. I would vote for anyone else before I voted for this waste.

Why can't we come up with a better candidate than this ? I hope there is a good challenger out there who can beat this guy. Look at his voting record , he is not in step with most West Virginians but unfortunately voters who are not following his voting record will vote for him because they recognize the name.
