The stars pretty much aligned for Republicans in 2010. Democrats were enormously damaged by Blagojevich, Giannoulias was a terrible candidate, Kirk ran a good campaign, and turnout was atrocious among Democrats, even in many blue states, leading to one of the best years for Republicans in recent history. Make any one of those factors slightly less favorable for the GOP, and Kirk loses.
