Your wrong, those two Senate seats would have given the GOP 47 total seats; not enough do to a D#$% thing to dismantle Obamacare. Stop making stuff up.
Every seat in senate is crucial. There are still a few blue dog democrats in senate, such as Manchin. Now they have solid fool-proof majority in senate.
I hope GOP has learned the lesson in nominating likes of Akin & Mourdock who have seriously hurt the conservative agenda.
