re: #367 Ojoe

And yes 2010 will dwarf that.

In 1994, the gop picked up 54 house seats and 8 senate seats. If the gop “dwarfs” those results in Nov, they will then have both houses, with a majority in the House bigger than what they had from 2000-2006. Possible, but not likely. For one thing, we don’t have 1994’s electorate any longer; demographically, it’s quite different, mostly in ways that don’t favor the gop.

The gop’s main problem is that they aren’t really growing their base; if anything, they’re shrinking it. Instead of finding ways to appeal to minority voters, they’re finding new ways to alienate them.
