She doesn't have to - if the number of conservatives in the general public that will not vote for pubbies to "show them!" because their every jot and tittle that they wanted wasn't done by Bush et al - is on the same percentage as here in FR - of all places! - then, yeah, they'll be in control - and I'll be heading for the hills
There are alot of people in PA. that say they won't re-vote for Santorum, but when they get to the polls and they see Casey Jr. and know what he is, they'll end up voting for Santorum....I think anyways....
I know alot of pubbies are upset with the gutless wonders in Washington Doesn't Care, but I can't see them voting for a rat either...and you might be right, they might stay home to 'show them' but I sure would hate to see that, wouldn't you?
