Agreed. Every election is "the most important election in our lifetimes - the country's future is at stake."
Repubs used that in 2010 to take back the House (and, in hindsight, that election really might have been huge).
Trump used it in 2016 to win the White House
Dems used it in 2018 (with a little help from Mueller) to take back the House.
I had to edit this for 2010...The Dems had thought they had a permanent super majority. If Repubs hadn't taken the House, who knows what the emerging regressives would have done. IMO, that WAS the most important election we've had in 30 years. Not trying to start a debate on FDR and the "New Deal", but Part Deuce is the road we would have gone down if Repubs didn't take the House in 2010.
