The bottom line: Biden may not find a truly effective GOP foil until after the midterm elections.

• A GOP-controlled House would allow Biden to pick daily fights and present his policies as an alternative.

• The last two Democratic presidents won re-election after losing the House in the mid-term election.

But will Biden, who will be 82 in 2024 (not to mention his vice president, and her world-class poker skills) still be on the ticket that year?
