Can anger over money in politics unseat popular Republicans?

Original: Analysis: Voters are angry about money in politics. But are they angry enough to oust popular Republicans?

A new analysis examines whether voter frustration over the influence of money in politics will translate into votes against well-established Republican incumbents. While polling and commentary point to widespread public anger about campaign financing and lobbying, the central question is whether that sentiment is strong enough to overcome the personal popularity and name recognition that have long protected many Republican officeholders in their districts.

Why now: Voter anger over money in politics is a live issue heading into elections, raising questions about whether it will actually change voting behavior.
