5. Paul Broun MIGHT be beatable.

He's wacko enough that our state teabaggers will give him the primary, and he's also wacko enough that any independents and moderates who happen to be interested enough to vote will be extremely turned off by his brand of crazy. The big question will be are enough moderates and independents going to vote in a non-presidential election year to make a difference?

Of course the downside of having a beatable candidate to run against is that he just might win, and the Senate will become just a little bit crazier than it was before.
