@mattklewis Valid point. Let's see if she learns from mistakes and runs a better race.In the 06-08 cycles I saw Rs survive 1st but lose 2nd -
@DavidMDrucker@mattklewis well midterms ARE bad for the Prez's party. Only 4x since 1865 has the Prez's party gained Hse seats in a mterm. -
@TomLavinNH@mattklewis Most recently 1998 and 2002 -
@DavidMDrucker@mattklewis all 4 were special cases; 1902-size of Hse increased, 1934-FDR/Depression, '98-Clinton Impeachment, '02-post-911. -
@TomLavinNH@davidmdrucker matheson's a conservative Dem from a prominent Utah family. Not an obvious target for defeat. But we'll see. -
