In the races in Virginia and New Jersey, both with Republican Governors aren't comparable. 

Chris Christie is a Governor with a Democratic Legislature.

McDonnell Governor with a Republican Legislature.

Christie is a reasonable guy, whereby McDonnell was an extremist. That's the difference between them. The question is will McDonnell be re-elected in future elections for Governor. 

Virginia is fairly cleaver when it comes to electing Governors. The candidates can serve two four year terms, but, not back to back. It creates an interesting dynamic and different from most other states.
