And this week at the beginning of the week, they're feeling a little bit less desperate about this.

And I think their thinking had been like, damn, we were on track to win something like 20 to 30 seats if this is a good year for us in the midterm elections in November and have a handsome majority in the House.

But a Democratic strategist who I spoke to over the weekend and looked at their polling numbers, they still think they're on track to win...

seven to 12 seats, something like that.

They still think Democrats take back control of the House.

Even with what happened in Virginia, they still are looking at it, but it's tighter.

It makes it tighter for them.

Of course, their argument is, well, Republicans don't think they can win, so they rigged the map to make it almost impossible for

for Democrats to win, but that's a hard argument for Democrats to make because they were the ones doing the gerrymandering in Virginia.

So I'm not sure they can quite take the moral high ground on this one.

And basically wiping out Black representation in Southern states.

It's over.

Is it James Carville who calls them bedwetters?

Yeah.

For our listeners in England, don't worry about DNC or DTRIP.

This is just the big poo bars.

The grand poo bars is actually what you need to focus on.

That's what Eugene is talking about.

That's where the power is.

And the money.
