Republicans Crippled in Blue States

We've seen surges of Democratic power in traditionally Republican states, such as Virginia, Montana, Wyoming, and Oklahoma, where populist Democrats hold the governor's office. In Blue states such as New Jersey, New York, and Massachussets, the GOP doesn't seem to have a clue. Forrester lost in Jersey by 11% to a mediocre Democratic candidate, Governor George Pataki has low approval ratings, and Governor Mit Romney seems to be poised to lose his reelection bid in a landslide.
