Mike Oliverio running against incumbent Democrat <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mollohan.house.gov\/\">Alan B. Mollohan<\/a> for the 2d District is also claiming to be running against Nancy Pelosi;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mr. Oliverio, 46, told a local newspaper that he would prefer to vote for a House speaker who has &#8220;the best interest&#8221; of the state. He later told voters at a local chamber of commerce dinner, &#8220;Hopefully, there will be a better candidate than Nancy Pelosi.&#8221; <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, I&#8217;d advise my fellow West Virginians that if they&#8217;re displeased with Nancy Pelosi&#8217;s anti-West Virginia policies, the last thing they&#8217;d want to do is send a Democrat to Congress. Mr. Oliverio&#8217;s &#8220;hopes&#8221; notwithstanding, if there&#8217;s a Democrat majority, Pelosi will be the next speaker of the house. The only thing that could stop another Pelosi term is a Republican majority &#8211; voting for Mr. Oliverio in November won&#8217;t help. So when you vote in the primary tomorrow, vote for whomever you like, but if you want to get rid of Pelosi, don&#8217;t vote for Democrats in November regardless of how Republican they try to sound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Times reports this morning that West Virginia Democrat state Sen.
