White House spooked by Virginia lossesWashington (CNN) - Senior Democratic officials close to the White House are privately starting to express deep concern that the early signs suggest President Obama may be on the path to losing in the neighborhood of 60 seats in the House, which would easily hand the majority to Republicans and exceed the 52-seat battering then-President Bill Clinton suffered in 1994. What has particularly gotten the attention of senior party officials is the fact that CNN has already projected that at least two House Democrats have lost in Virginia, freshman Rep. Tom Periello and veteran Rep. Rick Boucher.

What's on tap for WednesdayWith the mid-term election over, President Obama will convene a press conference in the East Room of the White House at 1:00pm/et on Wednesday. CNN's Senior White House Correspondent Ed Henry will attend the press conference. The press conference comes just two days before the president departs for a trip to India, Indonesia, South Korea and Japan. Ed Henry reports that in addition to Wednesday’s press conference, it is expected the president will make a statement before he leaves for Asia, possibly Thursday, to offer some type of olive branch to Republicans such as calling for a bi-partisan summit – possibly at Camp David – in an effort to try and bring the two sides together in the aftermath of the election.
