MSNBC's political nerd, Steve Kornacki, talks with Philip_Elliott for The D.C. Brief about the midterms and why he's still talking about Newt Gingrich
, and trust me, I was probably the only one in that school who cared about it. And now you fast forward basically a generation later. And the level of interest in politics that’s out there, I never could have imagined it would be at the level it’s at. People who I knew 20 years ago who might not have even been able to tell you who the president was, now we’re talking about different congressional races, and the whole culture has—for better or worse—kind of taken to politics.
Elliott: I buy your thesis that ‘94 was a reset in our national political discourse and identity. Are we due for another reset? Elliott: In the podcast, you make an interesting observation that Democrats took for granted their power leading into ‘94. And I can’t help but feel there was an element of that in ‘09, and there’s an element of it today, that Democrats just lack the imagination to think that Republicans could get their acts together. Is that what we’re seeing, or am I reading too much into this?
