The GOP should swamp the House and Senate. The usual result is a 40 seat switch in the House after elections at first midterm after a presidential.
But it appears the GOP has lost the Senate. It looks like they will barely get the House at this point.
Now obviously that's just what the "pundits and polls" are saying today - it could obviously go the other way (GOP gets the Senate, too, and alot more seats in the House).
But if the GOP can't retake the Senate? And barely can take the House? Historically the opposite party has never won the House and failed to win the Senate.
That's not a victory for the Dems as much as it is a tidal wave of loss for the GOP.
This should be a huge "gimme" of seats to the GOP - if the GOP can't even carry that off?
