J

I mean... charlie cook isn't anybody's colleague um he's the founder and the patron saint of the cook political report um you know he wrote uh in his most recent column he said this is the election that democrats fantasized about and republicans had nightmares about and he pointed out something that everybody's pointed out which is that you know this midterm elections are always tough on the on the party in power but for structural reasons the combination in the house of The gerrymander had very few competitive, genuinely competitive, organically competitive seats.
