It will be very difficult for my party to take control of the House for the next 10 years. Based on the 2010 census, the congressional districuts were revised based on population. Since most of the states were controled by the GOP, the redistricting was, likewise, favorable to the GOP and will assure a majority in the House for the GOP until as least the next census in 2020.

The Senate and Presidential elections are statewide and not effected by disricts which enables my fellow leeches a much better opportunity to win.

A great exapmple is Ryan. He won his congressional seat but lost the Wisconsin vote for President. Actually, Ryan lost his hometown for both offices.
