Of course Fox chose not to mention that the favorability poll it referenced shows that every Democrat (except for Nancy Pelosi) was viewed more favorably than every Republican.
We could also mention the fact that NBC news/Wall Street Journal also did a poll on the favorability of the NRA and Planned Parenthood and found that P.P. was viewed more positively than the N.R.A.

in 2014, there were 45 million
in the House elections
83 million in 2010
75 million in 2014
Even if you did want to argue the populations of the tiers running in 2010 vs 2014, you cant do it on the House level which shows a significant drop in the amount of people voting.

Soooo, explain what happened to Tim Thompsons seat in South Dakota?
Or how about Montana?
Remember, the topic is SENATE seats the republicans gained and why.

Did you check out the headline of "fair and balanced" Fox News?
Poll: NRA more popular than Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton
"A new poll shows The National Rifle Association is more popular than the Democratic party's two most prominent members, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama."
"According to a Gallup Poll between Oct.19-21, just under 50 percent approve of Obama’s job performance, while 45 percent disapprove. Meanwhile, in a NBC/Wall Street Journal survey of Americans taken Oct. 15-18, 39 percent of those surveyed had a favorable view of Clinton, compared to 48 percent with an unfavorable view."
I don't know how they decided who were the two most prominent. But one is the highest of that party in the government and the other is the front runner in the race for President. On the Republican side that would be Donald Trump and John Boehner. Let's see how they're doing.
John Boehner has a 23% favorable rating, compared to Barack Obama's 50% and a 54% unfavorable rating, compared to Obama's 45%
Donald Trump has a 31% favorable rating, compared to Hillary Clinton's 39%. and a 57% unfavorable rating, compared to Clinton's 48% Donald Trump Favorable Rating - Polls - HuffPost Pollster
(You have to click on "show more" a few times to get the Gallup numbers")
More recent numbers show Trump with a favorability rating of just 21% AMOMG REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
This is like saying Planned Parenthood is more popular than any Republican politician (which it is)
