While Florida Republican John Raese wants to attack Gov. Joe Manchin's policies, I return you to a time when Raese stepped all over the West Virginia GOP's "Unleashing Capitalism" messaging:
He also bashed Forbes magazine for knocking the state's business climate, recently ranking it 49th.
"My family has been doing business in West Virginia since 1905. A lot of people have done business and done very well in West Virginia," he said.
"We have more natural resources in West Virginia than all but two other states, Texas and Louisiana. We have the finest work force of anywhere in the United States."
At the time, the West Virginia Republicans were supposed to be criticizing the state's business climate and economy as a way to attack Manchin. I guess Raese did not hear about that in Florida.
