Just my observations over the years having had friends fly for just about every regional out there. There are some I rated in the "Mid Tier" which are quite close to a "Top Tier" airline, just as there are those in the "Mid Tier" who are close to the "Lower Tier".

As a previous poster mentioned, the benefits and work rules of the Top Tier regionals are slowly going away as they have to compete with those who have lower costs to secure flying, i.e. Air Wisconsin. Comair stands to lose pay and benefits as they are tied to the Delta BK proceedings.
