No runoff, that's great. Clean sweep.

This is facinating, if Edwards beat the runoffs, it will indeed be a great night for Dems. Sorry Mitch Landrieu, you would have indeed been a great Gov.

If Dems win La, a state they were supposed to lose, may be a sign for 2016. Even 2017, looks good, where Va gov looks like it may well be a Democratic hold after McAuliffe.

These gubernatorial races aren't an indicator for what will happen in 2016. First of all, the dynamics of gubernatorial races are very different from that of senate races or presidential races. Second of all, A LOT can happen in a year. Democrats picked up Virginia in 2013, and that was not an indicator of 2014 at all.

With that said, it is incredible that Edwards really does look to be the favorite in this race, which would mean that Democrats would make a pick-up in a state that has recently been unwinnable for them.

You forgot NJ was an indicator in 2009 for what was happening around country in 2010.

Chris Christie ushered in a new wave of conservatism, that helped sweep Dems out of House in 2010.

As long as Rubio or Kasich or Jeb isnt on ballot, winning the election is alot easier, because of Clinton's strength against the other GOPers in OH/Va is alot better.
