A very determined minority which is only a few votes away from a majority is vastly more desirable than a wishy-washy majority in which every important vote allows one or two RINOs to conveniently shoot down your legislation.
If Dems keep their Senate majority then Reid (if he wins) or Schumer become the face of their leadership in Congress, assuming Pelosi is no longer speaker. This could be a good thing as neither of those guys is at all telegenic and both are rather obnoxious. Also 0bama won’t be able to blame all his woes on the congressional GOP majority if he still has one house with his party in control.

Exactly. But there is even another dimension. In the next two months the Media will have to acknowledge the conservative message in this case. Pray that Christine O'Donnell can articulate that message.
And even given she loses pray that those who do get in can articulate the message. The conservative message - freedom and human dignity is the great privilege of the individual assuming responsibility for his own decisions, not the government's.
