1994.

It had been decades since Republicans controlled the House.

2006 is a runner-up, given how Democrats ran the table with the Senate.

2014 is close, due to how many seats Republicans gained and their success in the House. There was an argument in 2012 that redistricting lowered the Republican ceiling in the House (making it easier to defend seats to maintain a majority) but the party went on to exceed their 2010 numbers.
