The Republicans have almost certainly lost the House already. The Foley scandal took away momentum they had going in September and left the House leadership looking less than worthy of continued power. I think the Senate is going to stay Republican, if just barely.
Unfortunately, what this means is that Congres will waste the last two years of Bush's presidency like they wasted the last two years of Clinton's presidency. It wasn't that detrimental back in 1998 because of relative peace in the world, but now it is going to be a disaster. Maybe some good will come of it and Rumsfeld will get booted, though I'm not holding my breath.
