Great Documentary!
This was an outstanding movie that followed the races of individual candidates while highlighting the behind the scenes efforts necessary to take control of Congress.
Rotten Tomatoes reviews correspond to different film
The Rotten Tomatoes review above is for the horror film "House," which has nothing to do with the political documentary "HouseQuake."
Excellent Doc.
This is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the 2006 Congressional election, where Democrats took back the House (and Senate) in spectacular fashion. A journalistic examination of election strategy, never shrill nor employing Michael Moore-like techniques. Highly recommended.
