Issa cannot win his seat this time around due to Demographics and he knows it.
Look at how close the race was for him last time. He almost lost.
I live here. Issa is my rep. I have seen the influx of new residents in this area and most are likely to vote for a dem.
House flipping? FlipWilson says its too early to predict any flip or flop. If the tax cut emergizes the economy, then the democrats are dead meat. Running on vote for us and we will end the status quo of a booming economy by impeaching Trump isnt going to go over very well.
He had a reasonable shot before the tax bill.
Yes, he was walking a razor thin margin. But the demographics have not changed that much in the 14+ months since his last election.
He has the biggest advantage in politics: Incumbency. And Money.
