    I would absolutely vote for Shrewsbury in a general election if that was the choice in front of me, and I wouldn’t even complain relentlessly about “voting blue no matter who” because I know it is indeed the best way to accomplish my preferred political goals.

    I follow your logic to a point. There is obviously a potential candidate who is to the left of Manchin while not being as far left as Shrewsbury, they just haven’t declared a candidacy yet.

    If the Democrats end up nominating a socialist in West Virginia, they chose the “abandon the state entirely” option.
