Barack Obama

De gouverneursverkiezingen in Virginia en New Jersey zijn een tegenvaller geworden voor de Democraten. De Republikeinen behalen in beide staten een overwinning en nemen de gouverneursstoel in. Tegenstanders van Obama zien hierin het begin van het einde voor Obama en dromen nu al van een heropstanding van de Republikeinen. Dit valt nog maar af te wachten. De oorzaak van de nederlaag ligt niet zozeer bij Obama maar is te wijten aan andere factoren.
