Maybe the better question then is why 2006 was only D+31 as opposed to D+65?  Bush had significantly lower approval than Obama's on election eve.

Because the result in an "average" year is a small Republican house majority.

It's a sign of realignment when a party that is more unpopular than the other party, wins solely due to a vote against incumbency?

How many incumbent Republicans will lose?

Hint: (somewhere between 0 and 2 - and both of those 2 are freshmen elected in flukes)
