Chris Cillizza writes for The Washington Post: “We offered our six major takeaways from the Election 2012 Tuesday night on The Fix. And, we noted this morning that the tea party had a rough night. But, with an entire night’s beauty sleep in our rearview mirror, we now present our bigger take-out on the winners and losers from the day (and night) that was. To be clear: We always attempt to move beyond simply declaring the people that won winners and those that lost losers; this is an attempt to go deeper into what the election’s highs and lows really were.”
