Kentucky has the impact of Rand Paul's flameout of a potential bid for the Republican nomination, the Tea Party is going after McCain in the primary which if they win could shake up the race there, in Georgie the Republican incumbent has Parkinson's, and in Ohio there is Portman's trouble with the Republican base over same sex marriage and if there is an ugly fit with the Republican nominee and John Kasich, that could cause some issues downstream on the Republican side. If Trump is the nominee and acts like the giant asshat that he is to Kasich who is popular in Ohio, it could cause Republican Ohioans to not turn out.
