Of course, the kind of Blue Dog that is bred in California is much different from the kind that has been losing left and right. It's always strange to me to see people like Joe Baca, Adam Schiff, or Mike Thompson in the list of Blue Dogs, since they just seem like generic Democratic backbenchers.
Elsewhere, Kratovil might make a comeback, depending on how redistricting goes in Maryland, and there might be one or two from upstate New York or the new Illinois districts. I don't see the caucus's numbers increasing any, particularly given that a third of the current roster is probably going to be gone in redistricting (or is already retiring).
