In NJ I think the Dem turnout especially in the big cities like Newark wasn't as strong as they hoped/expected. The polls didn't seem to reflect voter sentiment too much either, but there was a definite upward trend for Christie the last few days of the campaign.

McDonnell winning by 18 pts in a state Obama won by 6 pts or so. Christie won (looks like by 6 pts) in a Democratic state Obama carried with a third party taking votes away from him. A big win for conservatives - now if Hoffman can complete the clean sweep. I think the premise that independents h/b breaking away from the Dem party is pretty well established.
