There's a good chance that backfires, and Kentucky ends up with a Democrat senator. They already have a Democrat governor, proving they will move left as a state. I'm not sure you can expect that in Louisiana, though.

This happened it 2010, when a bunch of Tea Partiers won their primaries, and then lost the general election, flipping a bunch of seats blue, and badly blunting the midterm boost they expected against Obama.
