Everyone said it would never happen, but it is. This election is shaping up to be repeat of that horrible 1994 midterm election, where Democrats lost the House and Senate and were reduced to 19 governorships as well as being decimated in state legislatures and local offices.

People promised it wouldnt happen again. Dozens of reasons were given for this:

Democrats arent exposed in the South the way they were in 1994.

Obama doesnt have Clinton's scandals.

Democrats havent controlled the House for 40 years like in 1994.

No House bank scandal.

Healthcare reform passed, unlike in 1994.

No assault weapons ban to piss off the NRA.

Democrats didnt raise taxes this time.
