Its hard to say at the moment but currently I see them losing 26-30 seats in the House.

In my opinion 1994 was worse for the Democrats in the house than 2010. Yes they lost more seats in 2010, but 2010  basically just wiped out the gains from 2006 and 2008 (which only went dem because of how unpopular the GOP was then) . In 1994 on the other hand the Democrats were not over stretched(they had 258 seats than which was less than the amount they had from 1990-1992 and for many congressional sessions before that) so most of the GOP gains were actually gains and not just a reversal  of a wave election.


So to really asses how bad 2018 is , just sholdnt be based on how many seats they lose but how long term the consequences of losing that election is.
