[Servant of the Cross]

Staying on the theme of being aggressive in the "Red-est" states with regard to the 2014 U.S. Senate elections, it seems to me that there are states to concentrate on and they fall into two groups .... "Take Back" states and "Upgrade" states as follows:

Take Back (from Dem incumbent)

Alaska – Begich
Arkansas – Pryor
Colorado – Udall
Louisiana – Landrieu
Montana – Baucus
North Carolina – Hagan
South Dakota - Johnson
West Virginia - Rockefeller

Upgrade (from lesser conservative)

Georgia – Chambliss
South Carolina – Graham
Tennessee – Alexander
Texas – Cornyn
Wyoming - Enzi

Your thoughts, edits or additions? With the exception of Colorado (should be GOP), every state went Romney in 2012.

Those lists are on the money....though I have to admit I’m not totally sure who is and is not up for re-elect on the “upgrade” list. And I think Chambliss is retiring anyway - but man, Alexander seems to be getting worse and Graham will almost certainly get opposition. In fact, I am consulting one of the potentials for that....and I hope he does get in.
