I'm shocked people are answering 1994 over 1998. Getting your affair outed and getting impeached is way worse than having a bad midterm, which happens to basically every President.

Maybe personally it was worse but Bill Clinton remained very popular throughout the whole thing and the impeachment backfired badly on Clinton .

Also 1994 was the 3rd worst midterm defeat post WW2 along with 58 and 74 so I wouldn’t really compare it to other midterms like 10, 18 which were no where near as bad

You'd think 1998 with the scandal, but I think politically speaking it was 1994, the year that the Republicans swept Congress and his poll numbers were horrible.  If only Bubba had kept it in his pants and stayed faithful to his family, the second term could have been much better because it was timed with the Internet boom.

It's 1993 and I'm surprised people don't agree. The 1994 elections would have been much, much worse for Clinton if they were held earlier.

His entire first hundred days were a disaster, without a doubt the worst ever. He also came into office as a plurality President and completely failed to appeal to Perot supporters, probably setting the groundwork for the modern dysfunction of the Democratic Party.

It's 1995, as for most of 1994 the midterms had not happened yet.
