Half the Blue Dog Coalition got wiped out in 2010. These are more or less the ones who are left and of these, a few are either retiring or running for higher office. A couple are in districts that are possibly going to be eliminated or redistricted in a way to make their re-election more challenging. So the Blue Dog Coalition will likely continue to shrink.

That some of these consider themselves Blue Dogs is laughable. I don't think any of them will switch. In 2010, a couple switched to run as Republicans and got primaried. Lesson learned.

Loretta Sanchez is a blue dog .. I could be wrong, but I thought she was the open boarders candidate that took down B-1 Bob Dornan ... won on votes of illegals.
