how about incumbents getting primaried out?
Lemme see now:
A.) Shut down the non-essential, spendaholic Federal Government until the sorry spendaholic Federal politicians give up; or
B.) Shut down and destroy America by approving the funding of America’s death knell Obamacare; or
C.) Be very, very fearful of what the Democrat’s Liberal Agenda Media MIGHT say and write about old-style Republicans who have always before caved in to Democrats?
Think, think, think - - - - .
2014 is going to be so much fun for the New Republican Party!

The project 43 safe Republican seats, plus 5 tilts and leans Republican, picking up 3 open seats. All those states went for Romney in 2012.
That means they have to defeat 3 incumbent Democrats to take control of the Senate. 48 Democrats are considered "safe, favored, or lean".
There are two tossups (Arkansas and Louisiana) and two "tilts Democratic" (Alaska and North Carolina). All went to Romney in 2012, some by significant margins.
Rothenberg Report is usually not too good. Leans liberal Dempocrat and most always is wrong. However not much rooom for swing. I am predicting Pubbies will pick up 12-20 seats....which will give them a masssive control of the House. Senate....no predictions.....too many RINOs that are traitors!!!
Go Mia!
I don’t think Kysten Sinema is likely to hold her seat.
This illustrates the undemocratic consequences of Democratic gerrymandering across the country which solidifies the Democrats’ hold on hundreds of congressional districts and thereby denying conservatives from electing congressmen to represent conservative policies.
“All others tilt to party holding the seat.”
Not all Gary Miller-R in California is shown as Dem leaning.

Frank Gunita has decided to have a rubber match with Carol Che-Porter in NH-1.
Rothenberg says that CA-31 tilts GOP? I find that very hard to believe, given that Romney got below 41% in the district and the main reason why Republican Gary Miller won under its new lines in 2012 was because so many Democrats ran in the jungle primary that the two Republican candidates got the two spots in the runoff.
