The quick and dirty analysis of the 2005 election is that the governor races in NJ and VA aren't losses for Republicans. NJ can't be considered a surprise at all that the Democrats held that seat. VA is a bit different in that Republicans need to recapture VA someday. I guess now was not the time but this was not a net loss nor an unexpected one.
California, on the other hand, is just plain screwed up. The problem in California is that it has this horrible leftist representation that won't fix a darn thing. Arnold lost big, along with a lot of common sense. California is a political disaster and we have hard leftists and crazy unions to thank for that. Whatever happened to Reagan Country.
At least San Diego elected Jerry Sanders instead of Donna Frye.
