Because of the somewhat bizarre rules of the Senate you really need 60 votes to control the action. So a big tax cut is doomed no matter what the outcome of the Cantwell/Gorton contest.

But at 50-50 all hell will break out in the Senate re: who gets seats (and chairmanships) on what committees. And the presidential election adds more fuel to that fire.
