2. If they're not careful, they'll lose their seats because of their own cowardice

because the American people don't like spineless pols representing them in our government. On either side.

The Right makes no apologies for their radical, pro-corporate stances, but the ones in their party who are perceived as being "weak" are challenged by Teabaggers - hence Lugar.

It's human nature not to want to take on someone strong and in-your-face. In fact, Americans can appreciate, even respect and worship strength in a pol.

No one likes to back a weakling in the halls of power of our government, so these Senators better be careful.
