2 hours ago – President Barack Obama speaks about the sequester on Tuesday, Feb. 19, 2013, at the South Court Auditorium in the Eisenhower Executive ...
When was the last time Congress outscored a president . . . . .
any president?
News flash: it doesn't happen. More than this, national polls favoring Obama have very
little to do with the 2014 midterm elections.
Chris Matthews (MSNBC) wanted to abolish midterms. Why?
Because his side of the aisle does not do well in midterm elections (typically).
There are 7 Senate seats owned by Democrats that are in jeopardy in the coming midterm election and, as things stand, it does not appear, at this time, that the House will flip for the Socialist's party.
Understand that midterm elections include 435 local district elections, one for each representative in the House and some 33 Senators.
Updated for this comment:
Each of these elections is considered a local election, especially the 435 district elections. Most notably, the presidential pretender sits out this election, eliminating the national passion for the midterms. Consequently, the turn-out is lower, and the know-nothing, give-me, give-me, voter is not the majority vote except in those district in which the candidate is, also, a Taker. The inclination, then, is for an educated electorate, and the conservative side of the aisle is often, heavily favored in such elections.
