 MyDD :: Direct Democracy for People-Powered Politics
Referencing long-term National Election Survey data, I noticed that whoever the electorate thought was in charge of the House of Representatives tended to lose seats in the House of Representatives.
In fact, in every election since 1970 where there was a large swing in seats--1980, 1982, and 1994--there was unusually broad agreement among voters over who controlled the House of Representatives.
Since 1970, there have been eight congressional elections where 64% or more of the voting public held the same opinion on which party controlled the House of Representatives.

Not surprisingly, then, the media has not gained in excess of four net House seats in any single election cycle since way back in 1990 (when they gained 7 net seats).

There always have been monumental advantages to being the incumbent in a U.S. House contest.
