I would've been less surprised in 2010 when it was the "time" for incumbents to go. But it's just kinda weird seeing this guy defeat the longest serving Senate Republican ever.

No, only when Santorum wins something.

For instance:

"Rick Santorum wins lottery"
"Congrats, Phil!"

Ideological reasons were a minor part of why Lugar lost. Age, residency and length of service were more like it.

Yeah, not surprised.

Does anyone know if Dan Coats endorsed in this race?

"Let the voters decide"- same as Mike Pence.

Great sentiment.
