New Blood

I've long said that the US Senate needs a bit of employee turnover. This year we got it!

New Dem Senators:

Begich
Udall
Shaheen
The other Udall
Hagan
Merkley
Warner

New Republican Senators:
Wicker
Johanns
Risch

And we're up to 3 senators needing to be replaced: Clinton, Obama, Biden (whose replacement has already been announced).



That's 12 13 in total, with two more still undecided, so we could get Franken and Martin, and the possibility of more people getting Cabinet jobs.
