"There are roughly 23,400 seniors on average in a congressional district who have Medicare Advantage, but who face losing it if Mr. Obama has his way."

To say nothing of the 17,000 per district who will lose their HSA's, for a total of 40,000 per district. Add close friends and close relatives and you're talking about 100,000 motivated voters (and typically, there are only 200,000-300,000 votes actually cast per district. Maybe Newt was right about 100+ seat pick-up.
