Exit polls showed economy, jobs, and corruption were 3 top issues.

Quite a different picture from 1 year ago when Obama swept

The Astra turfs have spoken.
I don't think State Governor races demonstrate much relation when it comes to Party outlook on a national scale.

Massachusetts, often argued as one of the most Liberal states, had a Republican governor for 16 years prior to Cadillac Deval and will (hopefully) be going back to one at the next election.
