By Defeating Corzine, Former U.S. Attorney Deals Big Blow To President Obama, Who Carried The State Easily In 2008
In the end, all the stumping in the world from the President of the United States wasn't going to stop regime change in New Jersey's highest office.
Republican Chris Christie ended Democrat Jon Corzine's four-year run in Trenton with a narrow victory on Tuesday, The Associated Press projected. Independent Chris Daggett, thought of by many as the wildcard who could upset the order of things by siphoning off votes from Christie, finished well back.
With 4,507 of 6,305 precincts reporting, Christie led Corzine 50 percent to 44 percent.
Independent voters gave President Barack Obama a huge advantage in the state last year, but they heavily favored Christie on Tuesday.
Not sure how much of this has to do with Obama. I'm just astonished that Christie was able to overcome Corzine's natural advantages. Fantastic news.
Natural advantage...you mean millions?

You are right this has Zero to do with Obama and everything to do with Corzine himself..
For people to jump to the conclusion that Corizine was defeated so it's Obama fault...is nothing short of thinking that the whole political machine runs in some kind of Herd mentalilty. It doesn't.
Baa, Baa, Obama won so should every Dem hence forward Baa, Baa........
You can bet your sweet ass that if Corzine had won, that it would b a validation of America's acceptance of the Librul agenda.
Bull...don't believe everything the media tells you Apdst.
At this point the Republicans could win a three legged race at some picnic and the righties would claim that is a sign of a defeated Obama.
Yeah. And Obama could be blown out of the White House 70-30 in three years, with Pelosi and Reid in tow, and "the Lefties" (*cough* not mentioning any names here *cough*) would dismiss it as not being a "real" rejection of Obama, or Democrats. Probably racist, in any case.
Yea, the fact that he outspend Christie on ads and that NJ has a heavy Dem tilt in overall registration.

Obama's a one termer.

Well if he gets two the second one will be a hell of a roller coaster. Dear leader is taking it easy on us now as he is worried about reelection.
There is still much damage to be done between now and then.
Conservatives also said Obama wouldn't be president. Many conservatives are still wiping the egg off their faces from their own failed predictions.
Still too early to tell if he will be one term or not. It matters what the economy is by 2011.
obama has done an absolutely magnificent job of educating this country
an electorate that couldn't spell p-o-l-i-t-i-c-s last november, now, every senior in the nation can tell you just about every page of those 1990 concerning health care
cuts to medicare and medicaid, mandates upon individuals to buy for themselves, fines on businesses, taxes on small biz, mandates on bankrupt states, 10 years of revenue vs 6 years of benefits, open-to-interpretation language about abortion and illegals...
americans are extremely aware of what's going on with health care, in afghanistan, concerning cap and trade
we know all about tarps and bailouts and bonuses and stimuli
olympics and nobel prizes
obama has done an absolutely excellent job of educating this electorate
gotta give him credit for that

Prof is this thread about Obama losing in a STUNNING defeat or is it about Christie winning a STUNNING victory?
What else could happen Harshaw? Is this like some kind of football game to you or something?
We live in the Present and the President is dealing with Present day problems, but by all means let's conjur up wild assumptions about what the Repulican wet dream would be for their failed party based on one race. Focus on what is important for the Present day America for a change.
I really thought Corzine would pull it out, even though most pundits yesterday said no. Congrats to Christie supporters.
