The GOP mostly dodged bullets this year, especially in MS.
I do think, though, that Ernst, Tillis and Gardner are about as far right as you can get while still being able to win statewide in their states.
The Republicans always push the envelope there. Meanwhile, Democrats have moderate heroes like Feinstein and Carper in deep blue states.
More or less agree. Looks like Republicans have their Karl Rove-style candidates who are model conservatives, who strike the right balance between moderate and reactionary.
