There was lots of Dem handwringing over Manchin’s announcement yesterday (especially with Jill Stein’s entry since many still blame/thank her for taking enough votes away from HRC). But even if he makes good on his threat to run on the alleged No Labels platform, I’m wondering if Manchin wouldn’t end up garnering more votes from Never Trumpers.
