Assuming we get to have an election in 2018, I could see 30-40 districts flipped. Overall, the current movement looks like it's time to stop the constant drift to the far right and have a hard turn to the left.

I'm hopeful. This foo-fer-raw over ACA is grist for the mill. One of the strategies of it all was to get it out there and see if the Repubs had the stones to actually repeal it. Nice to see them getting some backlash over it.
