Unexpected Schmidt loss could send chills down the spines of other Republicans facing primaries

The House GOP leadership has lost anywhere from 40-90 Republican votes on major pieces of legislation over the past 15 months. After seeing Schmidt's loss, that number could well experience an upward trend as Republicans begin to fret about their respective primaries and begin taking fire from their right flank.
Many will view the Schmidt loss as a wakeup call.
