New York and New Jersy are afraid

Been reading the political reports from both sides and something interesting has occurred to me. 

Everyone in the republican ranks except those from Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersy are afraid that this latest switch in voting by republican conservatives will result in strong primary competition this coming election year of 2014. 

What strikes me as interesting is that the strong primary challenges in 2012 resulted in many republican incumbents losing primaries and then the tea party/ultra conservatives who won those primaries losing to either independents or democrats in the general election. 

Given the anal-retentive nature of those ultra conservative and purblind extremists it is quite likely the same scenario will play out in the 2014 primaries and national elections, and if it does then the house of Representatives could very well land back in the lap of the democrats with plenty of independents siding with their democratic colleagues. 

I find the whole thing curiously satisfying and i for one can hardly wait. Apparently shooting themselves in the foot and then placing that foot firmly in their mouth is a genetic thing among republicans. But it does delight me and others who have had more than enough of these unrealistic and insensitive not to say lacking in perception and markedly ignorant anachronisms.
