Well that completes the set of all Dem senators in states that voted for Obama in 2012 (aka the Blue States).

So the question is, who is next: a Red State Dem or another Blue State Pub?


I'm betting Murkowski, then Collins, then Landrieu.

Collins I'm assuming is worried about a primary challenge. Murkowski's "evolution" should be done in a year or so. Landrieu I can see pulling a Tim Johnson and holding back so it doesn't hurt her brother's campaign (if he even runs for Gov/Sen), though she strongly implied that she supports it already. A few months after her/her brother's campaign ends, expect an endorsement from her.

Might Support Before 2020:
Manchin
Pryor (If he's still around)
Any Republican running for Senate in a Blue State in 2016 or 2020

Forget about Manchin supporting gay marriage. If he's pro-DOMA he won't support it. Pryor is less likely than Johnson/Heitkamp/Donnelly, but my gut says that he comes out for it in 2020.
