To find some of the poshest, see-and-be-seen places to eat in Washington, D.C. and around the country, one need only to follow the trail of where Senator Joe Manchin has been wining and dining D.C. power players on the campaign tab.The West Virginia , whose moderate fiscal views have made him a key player in the narrowly split , has spent more than $1.13 million through his campaign and leadership PAC on dining and catering since coming to office in 2011, according to FEC records reviewed by DailyMail.com.With Manchin's split-Senate rise to prominence came the realization that he could no longer be just the down-home, ex-governor West Virginian from coal country who didn't sign on to his party's leftward lurch.
