The Pennsylvania Democrat embarrassed Republicans nationally by handily winning a May 2010 special election, but the GOP may get the last laugh. Western Pennsylvania has borne the brunt of the state's population loss, and Republicans could easily combine Critz into a district with Democratic Rep. Jason Altmire by stretching from Critz's home in Johnstown to Altmire's home north of Pittsburgh. Most of Critz's current territory could end up in the heavily conservative districts of GOP Reps. Bill Shuster and Tim Murphy.
