I may be a little biased because I really hope he loses, the bigger the margin the better. I have a strong aversion to moderate politicians in general, as while I'm ok with centrist voters, for the politicians it seems like a cover for being corrupt and sneaking their party's legislation through the backdoor, watered down and praised as a miracle of bipartisanship. Since I dislike the GOP as an institution (I started paying attention to politics in the aftermath of 2010) and I dislike moderate politicians, a moderate GOP pol is going to be a mega-HP.
In any case he's mostly doomed, especially if the midterm is neutral or a dem wave. Even in the unlikely event of a GOP wave, I expect that will only mean that it will be a tight race with the dem in the lead, unless the Dems are morons and nominate someone really bad.
