BY LORRAINE DUFFY MERKL My Sunday nights just got better now that Julia Louis-Dreyfus has returned in HBO’s 'Veep.' Last season ended on election night, with President Selina Meyer (Louis-Dreyfus) facing the disappointing truth: the race had resulted in a tie. Two episodes into Season 5, she could still lose to her opponent, Senator Bill O’Brien (Brad Leland), in a vote-by-vote recount in the House. If that results in another tie, the 20th Amendment states that the Vice President automatically takes the Oval Office. Yes, Selina could actually lose to her charming, as well as undermining, VP, Tom James (Hugh Laurie).
