148. Wow are you small-time
Lincoln has literally campaigned as pro-union, and then govern as anti-union. She's been at the fore of blocking a lot of legislation labor wants. The plan was to get a primary challenger so she has to tack left to cover her ass.

She got a primary challenger.
She tacked left.
She barely survived the primary due to her leftward shift.

Doesn't seem like such a waste if one pays attention to the entire process, instead of falling into the media's lazy "horse race" style analysis.
