It's not so much New Jersey going right as far as people simply blaming incumbents for not doing much of anything of value. A democrat was in there before, they weren't happy with him, they went the opposite way.
Then in a few years when the Republican Governor doesn't do much of anything they'll probably go back and elect a democrat, and so on.
I agree. This whole thing about a Republican rebirth and that this is a referendum on Obama's presidency because two out of eight Republicans won gubernatorial races is about as ridiculous as using which testicle hangs lower to determine the same.

If you're a real "independent" then good for you, but my opinion of most independents is that they just vote for whoever tosses out the best sound byte close to election day.
Or they're just ex-Republicans who cant stand their party. They're pretty dumb, disengaged form politics, and incredibly self-serving.
I'm independant, I vote for whever has the better policies. The problem is, I've only found 3 Republicans in my life that fit under the "good policy" qualifier.
