NATIONAL: Dems retain governorships

Via Kos:

We've retained the governorships in New Jersey and Virginia. The numbers in Virginia are particularly exciting, as Kaine did better than the incredibly popular Warner. The state is trending our way.

Good news, to be sure. We prevailed in the major elections in the east. Bloomberg got reelected in NY, but that was to be expected. Also, voters in Texas approved a ban on gay marriage, but that's not unexpected either.
