Well, the mid-terms have come and gone, a wave crashing over the country, Congress, the White House and a bunch of very over-worked ±«Óãtv journalists.

With the voting over, this blog is wrapping up too - but first, thanks are due to many.

I personally wouldn't have made it through the election season without , which works overtime to keep the politicians honest (more power to you!), and Larry J Sabato's , whose predictions were uncannily accurate.

Thanks also to everyone who made this blog such a success - the 15 ±«Óãtv journalists who cheerfully added it to their already huge list of responsibilities, and to you readers who contributed over 3,000 comments on everything from the economics of the oil business to where to get grits in London.

This blog may be closing up shop now, but keep your eyes peeled - Matt Frei resumes his Washington diary next week. Look for him on Wednesday.

Till then, good night, and good luck.
