Capito Still on White House Guest List

President Obama continues to include West Virginia's sole Republican in Congress in his efforts to reach out across party lines, Politico reports.

It counts Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, R-2nd, among 37 House members -- and just seven from the GOP -- invited to a White House event last week with their spouses.

The Charleston Daily Mail follows up with Capito's husband, who attended both that reception and one just for spouses the following day.

Update: The social entreaties didn't prevent Capito from joining every other Republican in the House and Senate to vote against a $3.4 trillion federal budget for next year, The Associated Press reports.
