Cliff Schecter and David Shuster come off a 12-hr BAM marathon to analyze an earthquake. Democrats won the House and Senate. James Talarico beat Ken Paxton for a Texas Senate seat no Democrat had won since 1988, and Gina Hinojosa unseated Greg Abbott. I
n Ohio, Sherrod Brown beat Jon Husted, and Amy Acton beat Vivek Ramaswamy; in South Carolina, Annie Andrews won. [When they taped, Mississippi and Alaska were still counting, with Scott Colom and Mary Peltola ahead.]
Then the convo turns to what’s next. David talks about House Speaker Mike Johnson telling his staff he won’t run for minority leader, and JD Vance’s post blaming GOP losses on Iran, skipping the very inconvenient corruption issue. They discuss the Dems’ new 2028 bench, and relive the marathon’s best moments, including Mark Hamill reading Trump posts in his Joker voice.
