Another ‘94 or not?

Chuck Todd gives five reasons why this election might parallel ‘94, and five reasons why it might not.

His five reasons in favor of the analogy:

1. One party control
2. Unpopular president
3. Ethical problems
4. An unpopular issue
5. A disbelief in loosing

On the other hand, there are five aspects that are different from ‘94:

1. Prepared Incumbents (I guess this would include our GOTV)
2. Relatively Few Retirements/Freshmen
3. Nervous And Cynical Electorate
4. An Engaged White House
5. 2000-01 Census/Redistricting

There’s no denying that we’re in a bad state. Can we still turn this thing around, and pull a victory? I think so. . .so lets get to work.
