politics
Sabato was considered a harsh critic of former US President Barack Obama . Obama's decisions were one reason why he left the Democratic Party . In May 2017, Sabato announced that it would run for the Republican Party against Democrat Julia Brownley for a seat in the United States House in 2018 .
