Under the 20th Amendment, the new Congress takes office on January 3. The new President does not take office until January 20.
If the Democrats retake the Senate (which appears likely at this point), then it does not matter who is elected President. Senate Majority Leader Chuckie Schumer will have almost three weeks to easily push through on a party line vote all of Obama's nominees, from the Supreme Court to the district courts along with the FEC and any other federal agencies. There will not be a damned thing that the minority Republicans can do to stop it.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
Perhaps, but how long does it take to set up private e-mail servers?
One of who could well be either Barack or Michele Obama for the Supreme Court. Or as Ambassador to the Moon.

Let’s just hope your scenario doesn’t happen- I’ve got a freakin ulcer the size of Kansas this election season!
