Here’s the best available indication of what the press thinks will happen at the polls today:
For Republicans, an election win of any size Tuesday would be a blessing. But victories in Virginia, New Jersey or elsewhere won’t erase enormous obstacles the party faces heading into a 2010 midterm election year when control of Congress and statehouses from coast to coast will be up for grabs.
If the AP were calling this a referendum on President Obama, you could be pretty sure they expected a good night for Democrats.

UPDATE: A pretty good night nationally, with big wins in Virginia and New Jersey and a near sweep in Pennsylvania judicial races. Still, the loss in NY-23 is sad, if meaningless in practical terms.
