If special elections and appointed incumbents are counted, one cannot forget Bob Kreuger's 67-33 defeat at the hands of Kay Bailey Hutchison in Texas in 1993. But as I said, that was a special election and Kreuger had been appointed to replace Lloyd Bentsen.

So Santorum had the worst defeat by an incumbent elected Senator since George McGovern. Not exactly good company to be in. Smiley
