Note that in the upcoming 2014 midterms that there are more Democrats than GOPers up for reelection - and we’re talking swing states.

Twenty Democratic senators are up for reelection in 2014, compared to only 13 Republicans. Despite the Democratic successes the last time this group of senators was up for election in 2008, many of their seats are in Republican-leaning, or swing, states.

It is possible that the GOP could do a better GOTV than they did in 2012 and could pick up a seat here and there.

Guess we’ll have to consult the Oracle of 538 on this one… that is once he starts to focus on the 2014 midterms…
