In Maine, if Snowe loses, Dems will likely pick up. We likely have nothing to gain in Utah and will end up with Hatch or someone worse. Lugar could still survive the primary, and the IN-DP has a weak bench anyway (Ellsworth, Donnelly?)
Which GOP incumbent Senators will escape a teabagging?
Let's see:
Snowe, Hatch, and Lugar already covered Kyl retiring (he essentially is a tea bagger) Brown will, since there's not much of a Tea Party presence in Mass. (Yes, that could have been said about Delaware last year, but Brown is more conservative than Castle and Mass. is more Dem than Delaware) Hutchison retiring - will be replaced by a Tea Partier Ensign - will be primaried for other reasons
That leaves Barrasso, Wicker, and Corker - any news on them?
