Re: “I tend to believe that 2014 will be a bigger tsunami than 2010 was for Republicans.”
Sorry, all the polls suggest that’s incorrect.
Only South Dakota, Montana, and West Virginia look like sure Senate pick ups for the GOP.
We need 3 more pick ups to get a Senate majority.
Think about it.
After months and months of Democrat scandals and bad economic news, Republicans are essentially tied with Democrats in 9 out of 12 “Senate Battleground States.”
Plus, in three other states, Kentucky, Georgia, and Mississippi, we face a real danger of LOSING a Republican seat.
Here’s a link to the most recent polling:

. . .and THAT assumes we keep Kentucky and Mississippi.
NOT a given, especially Mississippi. . . . If Cochran keeps the nomination, I can see a LOT of Tea Partiers not voting in the Senate Race.
Besides, whenever given a choice between a Real Democrat and a Faux Democrat, the voters always go for the “real” one. . .
