I think that Democrats failed to go very against GOP. If Obama tried to be a true anti-Bush (closing Guantanamo...), liberal turnout, that gave victories in 2006 and 2010, would be higher. I think that if Democrats acted better, I can see Strickland, Sink, Feingold, Giannoulias, Sestak and White winning their races. Democrats could try to turn election at a referendum about welfare state. Another thing is that democrats acted too as social-liberals, what was very toxic at conservative districts. They could have tried to compromise on some things like abortion, thing that is impossible under Pelosi's speakership.
