On the heels of Reichert, Charlie Dent who represents PA-15 (arguably the most moderate Republican in the chamber) has announced he is not running for re-election.

Here is his Statement:
As a member of the governing wing of the Republican Party, I've worked to instill stability, certainty and predictability in Washington...Regrettably, that has not been easy given the disruptive outside influences that profit from increased polarization and ideological rigidity," Dent wrote. "I promise to continue my role, both inside and soon outside of government, of giving voice to the sensible center and working to solve problems for the American people through smart policy."
Of course, he was getting primaried from the right.
