Significant
 

With the senate win by Republicans is very significant to appointments to the Supreme court and other judgeships...it is the senate that approves them and they can block the appointment of liberal judges.

Reid blames Obama for democrats defeat....Reid was his right hand man blocking over 300 bills sent to the senate by the house Republicans.

Now with Reid out of office he and his son should be investigated for corruption in the purchase of acres of federal land in Nevada to install solar energy.....remember he went after the rancher for back payment on leased land in Nevada.
