And the seat was probably white plurality when he first took it.

Steve Cohen would be a better example.

You know would this result in permanent Dem control of the House?

First we get 53 black seats. Then probably around 12 or so of the 16 Asian seats. Probably all of the AIAN seats, plus the HIOPI and Other seats. The White + Asian seat might be competitive, but not the rest. That's already about 70 seats. Then with his Hispanic seats we probably take about 48 or so out of 55 (conservative estimate, I'm giving them about 3 Cuban seats and maybe 4 or so scattered ones around Texas and the west) and probably end up with close to 110 seats. We need barely over a third of the White seats.
