ABC assigned Jonathan Karl to summarize the "dramatically changed" line-up in the House and Senate. He ticked off five Senate seats--NC, Va, NH, Colo, NM--changing from Republican to Democrat with a further three--Ore, Minn, Aka--too close to call. He should have mentioned a likely run-off vote in Georgia but overlooked it. Karl noted that Sen Mitch McConnell "fought back a tough challenge in Kentucky and is now the most powerful Republican in America"--which must be a surprise to John Roberts, Chief Justice, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California, both of whom have more clout than Senate Minority Leader. NBC anchor Brian Williams asked political director Chuck Todd to assess "a very tough night for the Republicans." He summarized the GOP's mantra: "It could have been worse."
