Quote of the Day

“I didn’t come here to put on a show, but I am as Popeye. That was Popeye the Sailor Man. He said 'I am what I am and that’s all that I am.''’

-- U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., at a hearing Thursday on Capitol Hill, as quoted by The New York Times. Byrd also said he plans to run in 2012, when he turns 95, "the Lord willing."

ANYONE ELSE WANT TO HEAR LARRY’S TAKE?

Lawrence,

I like the way you’ve been integrating West Virginia AP and other state news outlets within your posts. But one thing seems to be missing. It would be great to get SOME COMMENTARY from a Capitol reporter besides Kabler (no offense to Phil). So come on, won’t you give us a bit of your opinion on the issues facing West Virginia? Thoughts on MoJoe's administration, etc.

Larry's a reporter, not an opinion writer. I like the "just the facts" approach.
