I have been saying all along that they would not win the Senate.  But tell me how many incumbent GOP Senators lost in this cycle?  Answer, none.  How many seats went from Dem control to the GOP in the last two years, including a good number of incumbents?  Answer, seven.  My point all along is that with our RINO's we were never going to be able to override a veto which is why we need to get rid of Obama in 2012 AND pick up a couple of more seats in the Senate AND maintain control of the House.  If all that happens then repeal of Obamacare is possible, although not guaranteed (see my RINO comment above).

In reality having Harry Reid win may be the best thing that could happen for the GOP.  Now in 2012, presumably after two unsuccessful years of trying to repeal the wildly unpopular Obamacare the GOP can argue to the American people that the only way it can happen is to eject Obama and more Dem Senators. And I believe after two more years they will see all the lies that Obama/Reid/Pelosi told them about what would happen under Obamacare it will be even more unpopular. Harry and Obama are just the kind of fools that will play right into that gambit.
