He said someone from the President's staff was on tv declaring that the tea party can only proclaim victory if they sweep the house and senate AND take the majority of governors’ races.
That same staffer was asked what victory would be for Democrats and he was unwilling to offer any barometer of success. He said he'd have to think on it or something.

I doubt 0 wants to be perceived as someone who’s grasping at straws or hanging by strands.
But that’s the perception he’ll give if Nov. 2 is a blowout and he reacts in a “well, things could have been worse” manner.
When you’re at the stage of “well, things could have been worse” that means you’re playing defense.
And you don’t win elections (this one or the next one) by playing defense.
