They lost it in 2010 because of GOP dis-information about how OBAMACARE was going to ruin the economy and that Obama was responsible for the huge deficits!

Simple. Obama "controlled" Congress from 2008 to January
2012. In those 2 years, the Democrats NEVER produced a
single balanced budget. The Dems were spending the
country into "bankruptcy", with billion dollar "stimulus"
delusions that did NOTHING for the economy. The Tea
Party rallied the country to put a balance in Congress,
against the Democrat free for all spend. It was JUST
before this new batch of Republicans were to take over
the House, that Obama, Reid and Pelosi FORCED that
abomination Obamacare, KNOWING it wouldn't stand a
chance later. These are the "cowards" and bottom feeders
the Democrats and Liberals "believe in".

The Republicans won control of a substantial majority of state governments. They then used that power to re-draw congressional district lines in such a way as to maximize the Republican outcome in the 2012 House election.
Linked below is the source Nez. It explains it in more detail.

That was 2010. It was because the right wing was so angry that a black man won in 2008, their voters came out and voted for whom they thought would take him down. Too bad they're also getting taken down in the process!
