Virginia and New Jersey Governor's Races putting Barack Obama to the test
POLITICS
One year ago, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States by a landslide winning solid blue states like New Jersey and even taking traditionally red states like Virginia.
Now Obama's staying power might be getting put to the test as Democrats in both Virigina and New Jersey are struggling for a win.
President Obama has been to both states several times, but his star power may not even be enough to help these two struggling Democrats out.
In the New Jersey Governor's race, polls show the race tight between incumbent Jon Corzine (D) and challenger Chris Christie (R). In Virginia, it doesn't look good for the Democrat Creigh Deeds. He'll likely get wiped out by Republican challenger Bob McDonnell.
A McDonnell win in Virginia would not be as big as a Christie in NJ, but either could be damaging to Obama's power in mid-term elections. What do you think?

the gop will win in va, but it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

Wow, losing both Virginia and New Jersey would be a complete repudiation of Obama, the Democrats... and the media. In both states, the media has staunchly supported the Democrat. Obama is personally invested. The Democrats are outspending the Republicans.
And yet the people are rejecting the Democrats. If you don't think this has larger implications, you're a fool.

Obama has already lost his relevancy. His wife is a shameful example of a first lady--her fashion sense is quite awful.

@ dee dee
He only lost his relevancy to you because YOU are just another one of those batshit crazy right-winged lunatics who is still pissed off that McShame and Carrie Prejean's mom didnt win last year's election.So you are spending all of your time bashing our president.It wouldnt surprise me if you are just another closeted racist.And furthermore Michelle Obama is probably the best dressed first lady we've had in a long time.Sadly you are another FOOL who cant get over the fact that a black/biracial man is now our president and that the First Family is black.Get over yourself Batshit

PRE SEASON IS BEFORE THE ACTUAL SEASON STARTS. THE RECORDS DURING PRESEASON MEAN NOTHING, IT BASICALLY LIKE A SCRIMMAGE GAME. AND A LOT OF TIMES THE REGULAR SEASON STARTERS (THE BIG NAME PEOPLE) DONT PLAY IN PRESEASON GAMES SO THEY DO NOT GET INJURED
