that is the obama agenda.

for the republicans to take control of the chamber and bury president obama's agenda in the last two years in office. they need a net gain of six. six is a magic number of the the number will go down. when the democrats pick up a republican seat the number will go up. the reason the republicans are favoured is because of the map. there are more competitive races that favour republicans where democrats are having to defend - let's put up the map and see the democratic states in blue and republican in red. these are competitive. democrats defending more territory, which is why it is suggested that republicans should be in a good position to take control. >> all right. we'll be with you all light. live in 10 cities across america. our reporters are covering the races and issues that matter the most. u.s. foreign policy will be affected by today's election. our al jazeera correspondents join us from international capitals including moscow, beijing, london, baghdad and jerusalem. we are watching several ballot initiatives on issues including legalized marijuana, the minimum wage, abortion

they rejected president obama's agenda that discourages the creation of manufacturing and itstruction jobs, the jobs would be created because of projects like keystone. americans voted for republicans. republicans, are the party of jobs. the people 6, it is of louisiana stern to be heard. we, the people of louisiana, will decide whether we want someone in the senate who represents president obama or represents us. someone who will work hard for jobs in louisiana all the time, not just when their job is on the line. someone who will repeal and replace obamacare with patient centered solutions, will push back on the epa's a job killing regulations, who will fight against president obama's executive amnesty, who will defend our second amendment rights. will push to get the keystone pipeline and other energy development projects bill. i'm running for the united states senate. i am that person. louisiana needs a state senator who can pass keystone. louisiana does not need a senator that supports president obama 97% of the time. we need a senator who supports us, the people of louisiana hun

that is a real litmus test, going big or things republicans don't like or big that define obama agenda. >> schieffer: if you needed an example that everybody is on edge up there on capitol hill, we got it this week during nancy pelosi, the house leader for democrats when she had a news conference. our nancy cordes asked her, since they lost majority in two straight elections, if she was thinking about giving up her leadership post. and, let me just show you what she said. >> first woman, was not that curiosity that the boehner on the front of "time" magazine, mitch mcconnell wins on the front of "time" magazine, a pattern here, as i said does not depend on any of that with all due respect to all of you. but as a woman, is there a message here? something that we're missing. >> may i say -- oh, please. it's not as if nancy pelosi when she became first woman speaker of the house did not get a ton of attention including from yours truly. i think with all due respect to the former speaker playing the gender card here, not a great idea. the really tough feelings, not a lot of fun these days.

what does this mean for president obama's agenda over his final two years? >> well, the leaders here are talking about finding areas where they can find common ground. mitch mcconnell mentioned tax reform and maybe doing business on trade agreement. but he has to keep the tea party leaders in check. ted cruz will push for investigating the obama administration. mitch mcconnell knell ruled that out. and president obama, maybe going alone on immigration, doing it by executive order. but the bottom line is anything that president obama wants to get, any legislation he hopes for for the remainder of his term, he will need republicans to sign off. >> tahman bradley for us live in washington, thank you so much. >>> and joining us here at the desk is our deputy political director. >> shushannah walshe. it was a shock of the night, a race nobody was talking about. >> it was not on the radar, the virginia senate race. right now, still too close to call. but the incumbent democrat, he was supposed to take this easily. right now, no call. >> big night for female candid

this was all about a direct rejection of the obama agenda. >> reporter: the renovation in congress ranks a clear reflection of voter frustration and disgust. much of it directed at the washington establishment. leading the way the likes of 37-year-old iraq and afghanistan war veteran arkansas's tom cotton. georgia's multimillionaire businessman david perdue and colorado's cory gardner picking up a seat obama secured twice. >> tomorrow we go to work to fix a washington that is out of step, out of touch and out of time. >> reporter: today in kentucky mitch mcconnell added a new title, senate majority leader, signaling a willingness to step away from past confrontation. >> we're not going to be shutting down the government or defaulting on the national debt. >> reporter: one bright spot jean shaheen fending off scott brown. for the gop it's not just the senate. when lawmakers return to the capitol hill in the new year, house republicans will have their largest majority since herbert hoover was president in the 1920s. now entering the history books, utah's mia love, the first black republica

this is a victory and i think a complete rejection of the obama administration's agenda. this really is, i think, the last chance for the american people to pass judgment on the obama agenda. and they are doing so -- doing so very clearly cross the country. >> governor, you proved to be the most requested politician to stump on behalf of candidates in your party than any other. in fact almost than any other combined. and i'm wondering if, in this potential kingmaker role, whether that goes back to rumped nixon in 1966, he cumulated a lot of chits in that election for a future white house run, so, too ronald reagan in 1978. i think you know where i'm going here. would that be very tempting for you, knowing you had a big hand in electing a lot of republicans who clearly wanted you to be the guy to put them over the top? >> well, let me tell you, neil, why i'm doing this. first of all i care very deeply about the direction of the country. that's why i ran for president in the first place. secondly, a lot of people out there who helped me, who really went to work to help me i

senate race in new hampshire really may test how potent the anti-obama and democratic agenda strategy by republicans can be. in this race is a virtual dead heat. jean shaheen going after republican challenger scott brown. he is a republican last u.s. senator from massachusetts. and because he's not from new hampshire the charges of carpet bagger have been put on quite a bit. at a chili cookoff she joked about it using immigration reform to talk about keeping scott brown out of new hampshire and denying him entry. watch. >> we sort of let this guy sneak over the border. you probably notice we've been debating border security a little bit. clearly we didn't do enough to secure the southern border. >> she's voted not to secure the border, not to send troops to the border. i have. i'm going to continue to bring that message to the people and listen to their rational fears about this real issue. >> brown's drawing big enthusiastic crowds. he's basically making the argument that jean shaheen has been a loyal democratic voter for the obama agenda and for that needs to be fired. counting on t

do you think this was about stopping the obama agenda first and foremost? or do you think this was about a republican vision? because i don't think most people would be able to articulate that. >> well, it depends. i mean, in the midterms they're also very centralized to the particular state. so if you're on the campaign trail with joni ernst, she's going to tell you here are the three things we're going to do. if you spent a weekend with scott walker in wisconsin, he presented five things he was going to do to further progress in wisconsin. he presented a plan. there are i think two things that happened last night that i think are pretty stunning. the one thing is it was clearly a repudiation of barack obama, his policies and everybody that was connected to those policies. but that's only telling half the story. it was also an embrace or at least an acknowledgment that conservative principles were the principles that worked in the state. so that's why you had bruce rauner winning in illinois, scott walker, charlie baker in massachusetts. so in red states,

it was a powerful repudiation of the obama agenda, the obama economy, which isn't working. >> well, that's nebulous. joe johns joins me now from lexington, kentucky. joe, is mcconnell's leadership in doubt? >> reporter: you know what, this is what ted cruz does. ted cruz is one of the tea partiers in the united states congress. and he is a thorn in the side, really, of the republican leadership. so it's not surprising. he's made it pretty clear that he's not going to challenge mitch mcconnell for the post of majority leader. but he does throw stones from time to time because mitch mcconnell in that job is a person who tries to make a deal. and tea partiers in congress, frankly, are not fans of "let's make a deal in congress". >> joe johns live for us. thank you for that. i want to bring in cnn's political analyst again, john avlon, the editor in chief of "the daily beast." and also with us is eleanor quiff. great to have you with us, eleanor. first question, eleanor, i love the fact that mitch mcconnell is one of those breeds we don't see as often anymore. he's the old-school guy who does

this was all about a direct rejection of the obama agenda. a all of you know, president obama said very clearly that his policies were on the ballot. and voters were very clear in return. they want nothing to do with the policies of barack obama and hillary clinton. up and town the ballot, these were the president's candidates, these were the clinton's candidate, and they lost. remember hillary clinton campaigned in kentucky. a loss by over 15 points. then hillary went to iowa and joni ernest won by more than eight points. hillary couldn't even save the democrat in the massachusetts governor's race. we won in red states. we won in blue states. and we won in purple states. we won because our policies resonated with the electorate, our ground game mobilized voters, and our candidates connected with the american people. after the growth and opportunity project, we fundamentally changed our strategy to expand the electorate and build permanent relationships and communities. we made a strategic decision to prioritize low-propensity voter, and we i

ultimately this was all a direct rejection of the obama agenda, but as you all know, president obama said very clearly and he went out of his way and i think it was also perturbed by the strategy adopted by democrats across the board when he declared continuously that his policies were on the ballot and the voters were in response very clear as well that they want nothing to do with the policies of barack obama and when hillary clinton and bill clinton tried to come in for the last 60 days to be the face of the democratic party, that didn't do anything to move the dial either. these were the president's candidates and they were also the clinton's candidates and they lost. remember the clintons were campaigning hard. they couldn't save their candidates even in blue states. i think in arkansas, tom cotton was declared the winner at about 8:01 by the "associated press." after wednesday's press conference, i'm not sure that the president got the message. he was dismissive, he was flip and this isn't the first time the president has told us he would be bipartisan, so it's hard to take him
