Dramatic shift in the political landscape

If you have been watching the mainstream news today you certainly aware that, in what has to be a referendum of the Bush administration, Virginia and New Jersey elected Democrats as their new governors in yesterdays off-year elections. You ask what is the net change nationally in governors? Oh, turns out it is no change. In Virginia, Democrat Tim Kaine is succeeding popular Democrat Mark Warner. In New Jersey, sitting U.S. Senator Jon Corzine is relieving another Democrat. Yep, real dramatic shift.
