so what he is announcing is nothing new because the GOP strategists are hand-wringing about it. Jamie Raskin has announced similar the past year.

Although obviously not a 100% slam dunk, the party in power usually loses seats, and even with all the gerrymandering, there are a pile of swing districts that we barely lost in 2024 in swing states, and those give us a good chance for some pickups.
