This is basically the textbook definition of a fool's gold seat. It's designed to be very polarized. And do the GOP hold any 56% Kerry seats even after 2010? I can't think of any.

Well, they do hold a handful of 55% Obama districts, which is the problem here.  This is one of the few districts Obama did worse than Kerry in.

Why not just get someone who's only interested in being a seat warmer who'll then have a foot in the door to a high-paying lobbyist position after a year and a half?

Such people are usually not good candidates.
