Several Republicans in competitive seats are quitting too

Yep - Buck McKeon from Santa Clarita is one of 'em.....and the only reason he's held the seat through the last few squeakers was his familiarity -- his seat will go 'Rat this November.

I doubt it. All of Cali is trending rat but this is still a Republican seat and 2014 is not looking like a good year for rats.

Obama (who ran very strong in Cali, most our House candidates in competitive seats did much better than Romney) lost the district after narrowly winning it in 2008.

McKeon won by 10 points in 2012 after the remap, not a squeaker. I don’t know how new the district was for him but in 2010 he won his old seat with over 60%, far from a squeaker.
