"To the right" generally means the Republican Party plunging deeper and deeper into its southern strategy, pandering to far right elements like white supremacists and christian dominionists, suppressing the votes of blacks and other minorities, and attacking women's access to contraception and abortion, among other things.
The House? Telemann has already pointed out the redistricting that gave the Republicans an advantage, but frankly, The House has always been something of a haven for the nuttier elements of the right in our country.
