This doesn't surprise me, but anything that divides the unbroken ruling class front is a good thing. I'd be surprised if any of them mounted a serious challenge to O'Bomber in 2012, but a Republican victory in that election might just lead to more open breaks by the tea partiers. And that would make it easier for a few bits of the liberal and labor elements of the Democrats to stir to some independence here and there...particularly against some really conservative Democrats. They'd probably not include "Labor" in the name and almost surely not "socialist"--but would be supportable under the right circumstances.
