Rob Tracinski talks with Sean Trende, senior elections analyst at RealClearPolitics, about the 2018 midterm elections and how the commentators' impressions stack up against the actual results. The conversation includes: whether the "Kavanaugh Effect" was real, how Democratic gains in the House are like the Tea Party wave of 2010, and why party coalitions are like a water balloon.
