mr. congressman, i'm really sorry but the late returns were from the rural areas, and jimmy carter actuallygot the votes to move ahead. he's won, you've lost. udall said, well, that's it, you know? this call a press conference. which his staff did. and mo began by saying the people have spoken, the bastards. [laughter] and i'm sure that's, that's how many democrats are feeling today. but from a historical perspective, what we have is about a 6.5% swing in the national vote toward the republican party which we have had that kind of swing several time in the last decades while we've been doing this seminar. but it proves efficient in producing more turnover and seats. we know republicans have 60 guaranteed, and they could well move up to 65. so it was a significant victory. didn't produce the majority in the senate but big, big, big pickups. but what i was struck by in reading the papers this morning from george will and kathleen parker and the post, crownhammer hasn't had a chance to weigh in yet but will get the same thing. of course, it's a rejection of liberalism. it's, clearly, the count

[laughter] >> i am sure that that is how many democrats are feeling today, but from an historical perspective, we have a 6.5% swing in the national vote for the republican party, which we have had several times in the past -- in the last decades, but it proves efficient in producing more turnover and seats. when no republicans have 60 guaranteed, and they could well move up to 65. it was a significant victory. it did not produce a majority in the senate, but big pickups. when i was struck by in reading the papers this morning, from george will and kathleen parker , it is a rejection of liberalism. it is clearly the country signaling that this it administration has gone too far to the left -- that this administration has gone too far to the left. i am just struck by how much my town is captured by ideological thinking, and not
