'Tea party on steroids'Undertheradar races named where Dem revolt may topple incumbent
"CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten said Thursday the Democratic Party is living through its own version of the Tea Party revolt, and a cluster of late-summer primaries have caught his eye to gauge how far it spreads.
Enten, whose midterm data breakdowns have become a CNN staple, argued that more House Democratic incumbents have already lost primaries in 2026 than Republicans had at the same stage of their 2010 wave.
"We have seen something like this before. You have to go back 16 years. Remember, it was that Republican Tea Party wave of 2010. I would argue the Democratic version of it is a new Tea Party, but it's on steroids," he told viewers, noting Democrats dislike their own party more now than Republicans did in July 2010."
