The House will be a very different place. Committee chairs will be different, with Democrats holding the gavel in some committees, and nonsense bills will stop making it out of key committees to the floor. The crazy right-wingers are going nuts. They will lose their dominance. If you don't believe me, check out nut-case David Barton's blog. He's drowning in his own hyperbolic hysteria.

He doesn't come across as a game-changer. What makes him interesting is his across-the-aisle support -- without Democrats, he wouldn't have won. 1 = Out with the old, in with the old.
