Gene Taylor, Ike Skelton and John Spratt were all safe, until they lost. I'm not particularly sold on the idea that any Republican in an Obama district is safe, no matter how much people supposedly like them. You could argue the PVI's are lower than most conservadems had when they lost Republican seats, but at this point, polarization is so high, 54% Obama is good enough to get a Republican the boot. LoBiondo received his lowest winning percentage last year, against a nobody candidate, so he's a legitimate target.
