Republicans pick up 111 seats in the House and 12 in the Senate.
If it’s really that high, then that means that the GOP will pick up even more seats than the pundits are forecasting.

The Democrat Party is facing one of the greatest electoral defeats in American history.
The arrogance which this administration and Congress governed over the last three years, like a third world nation, has angered the American People to an extent not seen in decades.
She (Blanche Lincoln (D-ARK) appears abandoned by voters, who have favored Mr. Boozman by double digits in nearly every poll in recent months. She has been forsaken by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which has essentially written off her race and apportioned almost no money to it, and she has been dismissed by pundits, handicappers and operatives who are focused instead on a cluster of tossup Senate races in states like Colorado, Illinois, Nevada and West Virginia that absolutely do not include this one.

As with many incumbent Democrats, Mrs. Lincoln has been stung by association with the presidents agenda. She takes strenuous pains to distance herself from the White House, trumpet her centrist credentials and assert her independence from her Democratic colleagues.
Like pretty much every underdog politician in America, Mrs. Lincoln insists that she is going to win, that momentum is shifting toward her and that she hates polls.
Total CommieCare attenuation factor: ~60%. This leaves 40% of the onerous aspects of CommieCare in place, and this 40%, as it kicks in, throws millions of people out of their private plans, shuts down hundreds of hospitals nationwide, and results in hundreds of thousands of premature deaths among middle-class Americans, many of whom traditionally voted Republican.
Working with the media, Obama and the Democrats are able to sell the idea that the reason "health care reform" isn't working is because of the terrible changes the Republicans, working with "Big Pharma" and "The Hospital Lobby" have been able to "ram through" so as to "sacrifice the health of millions of Americans on the altar of profit." Too many average Americans believe it, and Obama sails to victory in 2012, with a smaller but still decisive majority in the House and Senate.
The State Run Media declares that "Obama's New Majority" have "A Mandate To Put It Back And Then Some," which was Majority Leader Elect Waxman's campaign slogan.
All over the map.
Obviously disastrous for dems. Even advanced voter fraud will not help this kind of split.
Among voters not affiliated with either major party, Republicans hold a 17-point lead.”

“Even more worrisome for Democrats, however, is the finding that among the voters who are most closely following the midterm elections Republicans hold a 55% to 36% lead.”
Wow. Further, in states that actually require some form of voter ID, it’s well, well past time for the RATs to try to rally more registrations. In those states (I think still the majority - the one’s that don’t have the insane motor/voter type laws - anyone know what the breakdown is) - it’s ALL about GOTV.
Go good guys and gals!!
Any resolution to the millitary votes in IL and/or NY?
And I would not be surprised to learn other deep blue states have the similar problem that weren’t reported.
Epic landslide!
Very good news. I don’t think anything can save the DemonRats.
OHIO CAMPAIGN STOP "Barack, you think these cheering suckers will vote Democrat, again, after all your screwups."
" My screwups? You the one who went globe-trotting to Spain. That dumba** trip killed my agenda for good."
