The Democrats should have picked up the states. This was about a R+7 election. In an neutral election, FL,ME,MA,MD,WI,MI,KS,IL should have swung the other way. If this were  2006 or 2008, I could see AZ and GA flipping and OH getting a good enough candidate to win. But there was a reason this was an R wave. Between the media bias, the changing (a lot of opportunity and at least neutral macros, but still feels bad) economy, poor candidates and an agenda that went off the rails, it was supposed to be bad.
2014 was a lot like 1986 than 2006. People tried something new, it had staying power and they wanted to go back into their comfort zone.
