No, it wouldn't.  The Senator may well place the welfare of the state party over the national party, but that's about the extent of it.

Not when the state government selects the Senators for their state every 6 years.  If the Senator wants to keep his position, he'll work for the state government and not a party (which may be out of power at the time of his/her re-appointment).

That's just it: more often than not everybody does in cases like that.
