Stuck with Cassidy as he is pretty generic.

That being said, Kingston puzzles me. He seems like the perfect candidate, yet is still trailing Nunn in the polls. I know Nunn has the name recognition, but both he and Perdue seem like pretty solid candidates.

I think Gardner is the best candidate of this bunch by a good margin. Perdue is pretty good too, in spite of multiple gaffes and every single former GOP candidate endorsing his opponent, he's moved upward in the polls and has forced Kingston to desperately move toward the impeachment position. His upward momentum has me believing that he will win an easier general election than Kingston would.

Keep in mind that while he was never as bombastic as Broun and Gingrey, Kingston has always been pretty far to the right.  He was pulled even further right during the Primaries by having the nutters there.

 This could be a case of the tea partiers not winning the Primary, but the presence may have driven the establishment so far right that it could put them in danger for the General.

Kingston.

Cassidy is close to your "Generic R" but he's a horrible public speaker.

SMC or Rounds. Among purple state candidates - Gardner easily.

Cotton and Cassidy are the only ones who are gonna win, but since Cassidy will only win due to Louisiana's horrendous jungle primary system, I'll say Cotton.

It might be hard for the GOP to win in both AR and LA if the bottom falls out in Georgia for the Republican nominee.

I think Perdue is the best, though I am a bit biased as he is one of the R Senate candidates I am endorsing.  His businessman profile should play well in Georgia and he does not have any votes to answer for.  He also has an association with Sonny.
