I believe in 1994 there were over 100 House seats "in play". Toady that number has dropped to maybe just over a dozen due to gerrymandering.

That, and 1994 was more of a "throw the bums in" than "throw the bums out". Newt and the boys had a PLAN. Something the Dems don't and never will have.

I feel better about this day already. Bring it.

Yeah, that is correct. One must also understand that there was a shift to the GOP because they Democrat party had gotten so leftist and liberal, that people voted GOP. Scandals had only a little to do with it. The issues of that election were the Contract with America vs. gays in the military, raised taxes, Jocelyn Elders, and socialized medicene.
