Montana for me (Daines probably in, Schweitzer too), if the republicans win this seat, they would probably win LA, AR, AK, SD and WV too!
It could have been North Carolina or Iowa, but the NRSC has some problems finding a good candidate. Tillis=loooool, a deeply unpopular legislature and they choose the speaker of the house. And for Iowa, the major Pubs are out.
I think Michigan will be a tight race, the former secretary of state seems to be competitive, but it's Michigan, in a neutral year, narrow advantage for the democrats.

With Schweitzer out, I would say Alaska.

I voted Montana in the poll originally but after today's announcement by Schweitzer, I'd change my vote to Louisiana.

Would Joe Manchin would switch parties if there was a 50-50 Senate after the 2014 elections?

Impossible, Joe Manchin and Mitch Mcconnell hate each other.

Yes, maybe Louisiana. Honestly, Landrieu is a bit a survivor, but it will be tight!
