
Two big demographic dynamics that will determine what happens in 2014:

Seniors. Republican incumbents trail Democratic challengers among seniors
across the Republican battleground. That’s right and the trend improves in each
poll.

 Unmarried women. If they turn out and vote as they did in 2012 and in Virginia
in 2013, Democrats will make major gains. They are underperforming now at 52
percent in Republican districts, but shift 9 points after a health care debate, which
moves the race overall to even. That puts one-half of these 50 seats really at risk.
