<p>Gov. Joe Manchin's slogan never caught on with everyday West Virginians, especially when it was placed on the welcome signs on bridges and highways entering the state.</p>

<p>I have known Opal Sanders for 18 years. During those years, I have had the privilege to call her one of my dearest friends. That is why I would like to recommend her to the citizens of Cabell County as a qualified candidate for magistrate. Unfortunately, I live in Wayne County and am unable to vote for her. However, I can't think of anyone I would rather see in office than her. </p>

<p>Like all communities, the Huntington area has experienced its share of good times and times that were not so good. But by just about any yardstick you care to use, this is a good time to live and work in Huntington.</p>

Editorial: Clinton is best choice for W.Va. DemocratsThe Herald-Dispatchhttp://www.herald-dispatch.com/articles/0511_edit2008-05-10T22:28:40.508398-04:00
<p>Even at this late date, West Virginia is important as members of the Democratic Party slug it out in choosing their next candidate for president. It's been a long time since that has been true -- 1960, probably. At this point, Democrats must ask themselves which of the two remaining candidates -- Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton -- would make the best candidate and which would make the best president. From here, the answer is the same person: Clinton.</p>

<p>West Virginia's primary election on Tuesday has lots of exciting races to be decided, but the presidential nominee ballotting on the Democratic side looks a tad anticlimactic after Barack Obama's convincing 14-point win in North Carolina and his razor-edge two-point loss in Indiana.</p>
