Obviously a few seats can matter (as is the case now!), but I never worried too much about the Republican gerrymandering. I mean, if the Dems can't net 20+ seats after 2 years of Donald Trump, then they deserve to lose (not that we deserve the consequences of that).
Still it was good to see them overcome their normal timidity and actually respond. Republicans and much of the media don't consider this to be fair, as Dems are not supposed to behave that way.
