Mooseontheloose posted:Bumping if people have more questions. Hi, Moose I worked for a Lobbyist firm in DC in the late 90s. I'm a former political junkie but left DC for a non-political job opportunity 20 years ago and have been abroad every since. That said, with the sadness of GWB and even Obama's post 2012 politics, I still have the political-policy wonk blood in my veins. My 2 questions: 1. What's your take on the coming mid terms? The party outside of the Executive gains seats historically, but will these year be a major gain for the Dems (like the GOP in 1994)? 2. How nuts have DC rents gone? Do I every have a chance of renting a studio anywhere in the District again? Cheers.

Also, if you saw the VA midterms, it was the first time in 30 years baby boomers didn't get a majority of the vote share which is going to be real tough for the Republican party if that trend holds true. Cheers, Moose Interesting demographics in the VM mid-terms.

Mooseontheloose posted:Another way to put this is Democrats are out performing EVERY election they are in right now and by a lot. It's an indicator of a possible 'blue wave' as you note. I'm not D nor R - I despise both. But I have a special disdain for Dems after what they've done to abandon the working class (probably never were in support of the working class - which include middle class stiffs, H1-Bs, soft on illegals and muslims entering the US.

To answer your questions. No, I'm not a Repub. I cannot stand them. No, I'm not a Trump supporter and did not vote for him.
