CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Well, it certainly will be a verdict over the six years of the Obama administration -- but I think it also says something very interesting about the GOP. We have been hearing for years from the media about the raging civil war in the GOP, between the tea party and the establishment. And here we have a crucial midterm election in which youve got the insurgents, the radicals, the outsiders if you like, rallying with the establishment -- almost complete unity. There have been some contests within the Republicans, the GOP in the primaries that have been nasty and angry, but once those got settled, you got outsiders like Rand Paul, like Ted Cruz campaigning in states which are called establishment senators, unless the Republicans have a bad night, in which case the civil war will start up tomorrow and it will be a bloody one, but if they have a reasonably good night, this bodes extremely well for 2016, they rallied together to try to do well in the midterm. And I think that means that when the bloody primaries for the presidential are over in two years, they will rally together to win the big prize, which is the White House.
