I lived in West Virginia and met Robert Byrd. He is a fine upstanding gentleman that took the heat supporting Civil Rights legislation when the South was stonewalling trying to prevent it. When he was young he joined the KKK and later resigned and apologized. The slanderous low blow Republican ad obviously did not tell the whole story.
He was a very easy person to make and a good old boy mountaineer and he plays a mean country fiddle.
In fact I have not found a Republican ad the did not fudge the truth or down right lie.
