This week might be one of those very very rare events that might loosen gop hold on the house.

I often say that too many seats are permanent due to district gerrymandering and outside money.

This might actually be harsh enough to carve out enough votes in some important districts to turn them blue.

Let's hope the msm keeps up the pressure with questions about charlotesville in the 2018 campaigns, up and down the line.

Let's also hope this brings Obama's voters back out to the polls.
