joining us now chris stirewalt, politics editor digital for fox. s, you know, we have had these stories in various races. and it was being portrayed that the tea party was weakened. that the republican party overall had really taken over the tea party message and it was kind of like the empire strikes back. this is a big, big win for the tea party and it's hard to overstate when you take out a leadership figure in a party how much it could rock that party to the core. >> well, i think you can pretty conclusively say that the idea of comprehensive immigration overhaul is dead meat. the president is going to do what he wants to do this will send the loudest, strongest clearest message inside the republican party that the g.o.p. base will not tolerate what eric cantor and what others have tried. you point out south carolina where lindsey graham is having a much better time of it. i think to graham's advantage, he saw this coming, he wrkd on it it he had a positive message going out to tea partiers. lindsey graham said you and i may not agree on everyth

joining me now with reaction to this is kirsten powers, and chris stirewalt.evening to you both. >> good evening. >> i want to focus on this whole issue of the arkansas library. the arkansas university library, which banned this washington free beacon reporter because he used their information to write his story. kirsten, what do you think of that part of this? >> oh, well, it's terrible. obviously. you can't have a situation where you have a university, which is supposed to be a place of learning and finding information, saying that you can't have access to facts, which i think universities should be interested in. because you have done something to somebody that we are aligned with or that we are philosophically or politically or ideologically aligned with. it's completely inexcusable. i actually don't etch know how they could come up with any kind of explanation of how this would comport with the university. >> mostly through their foundation, but the clintons have given this university $415,000 over the years. so is there a conflict of interest for this de

. >> fox news chris stirewalt is like from washington with more on this.didn't look like pitcher but apparently he pitched a good game. a lot of countries were big surprises in this. what do you see in the politics? >> it is remarkable to force an em -- imcumbant into a run off was a big deal but the fact he won it by growing the elector e electorate. usually it gets smaller, but what the groups supporting to senator was get out the vote among democrats and non-traditional republican voters, juiced the turnout and won. >> how did they do that, chris? he did very well in african-american counties. how did they do that? >> democrats like spending. and they talked about that was a point on which senator cochrane agreed and thought spending money was a good deal. republicans don't like spending or bigger governments. so as ty cobb said was hit them where they are not. so they found a way to appeal to democrats on big spending. >> everybody in the races is analyzing all of these elections trying to figure out the winning combinati combination. what is the take
