Capito's Challengers start appearing...

Nah, not too early in the election cycle to start planning these things out... WV State Sen. John Unger from the Eastern Panhandle is thinking of making his move.
From Charleston Daily Mail:

National and state Democrats are priming state Sen. John Unger for a potential run against U.S. Rep. Shelley Moore Capito next year.
But Unger, D-Berkeley, says he's only considering the option at this time and has not made a definitive decision.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, including its chairman, Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., met with Unger a few weeks ago to discuss a possible run for Capito's 2nd Congressional District seat in West Virginia.

The committee says Unger has its support if he decides to throw his hat into the race.


Not a bad possibility, though I don't hear that many great things about Unger.
Whatever gets Capito out, and it is good to see that without Rahm Emanuel running things, we have a serious DCCC chair in Van Hollen who recognizes the potential of the WV-2.
