Is there a red state surprise coming that no one is talking about?

I cannot help but think there are some sleepy red states being ignored by pundits that could surprise the hell out of us in November. Is there something going on in your part of red America that we should know?

It gets me paranoid that something is in the works, and they are just greasing the skids to create acceptance of an unexpected string of red victories...

Former Democratic Gov.Phil Bredesen vs Deplorable Marsha Blackburn for Senate seat vacated by Corker. Even Republicans don't have a beef with Bredesen and he is doing good in the polls. Fingers crossed.
