This year's class of veteran candidates includes 73 incumbents, a couple of current House members looking to make the jump to the Senate; the former face of military personnel policies at the Pentagon; long shots hoping their veteran status helps them pull off an upset victory; and challengers in some of the most competitive races in the country that could determine which party controls the House or Senate.
Republicans account for 133 of the veteran candidates, compared with 56 Democrats.

It would be nice if the only thing to consider other than party affiliation were ability.

Only if the house changes hands as well. I like it when the houses of Congress are in different party hands as it keeps one from pushing bad laws. I really do not like it when both houses and the WH are the same party, even if the party I prefer.
