11. It's an historic trend that the losing party in the GE wins the NJ/VA governorships.
Exit polls from NJ and VA contradict you that it had anything to do with "Congressional mishandling". 60% of both electorates
said their vote had nothing to do with President Obama or his policies. Meanwhile, equal amounts of partisans showed up to vote
and cancelled each other out. Swing voters went as they always do -- against the incumbent/incumbent party in power.

In other news, Charlotte, NC gets first Dem mayor in 22 years, hotly contested Palin/Beck axis candidate loses NY-23 (the district
has been in GOP hands since 1852) and we pick up a House seat in CA.
