It's one thing to find the new NC map utterly disgusting (because it is) it's quite another to use it to justify generic partisan outrage at how nasty the other lot are. Like it or not, the NC Dems had it coming.

I wonder -are we entering a period in which the Republican Party holds almost uninterrupted control of the House for the next several decades, while the Senate and White House are more competitive, similar to the period between 1954 and 1994 when Democrats dominated that chamber?

People were suggesting the same kind of thing before 2006 happened. The American electorate is volatile and gerrymanders can break surprisingly easily.
