Politico: “The midterms are over. So when will top-tier 2020 contenders announce, already? The Democratic Party’s victory in the House on Tuesday removed a major barrier for many likely candidates, who’d been waiting out the midterms for the sake of propriety and to see how vulnerable President Donald Trump seems. Had Republicans kept the House, several Democrats would likely have taken a pause.”
“But Democrats have now arrived at a decision point, and they’ll have to choose whether to announce sooner — as then-Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack did in 2006 — or wait until deeper into the election cycle, as Bill Clinton famously did in 1991.”
