Salami Victories- States,Senate and WH - Republican candidates lead by double digits in NJ and VA

*Virginian gubernatorial candidate, Bob McDonnell (R), leads his Democratic opponent, Creigh Deeds, by 15% in a new poll from Survey USA.

And Barack Obama might have something to do with all this. A new Survey USA poll shows his approval at -5% in Virginia.only 44% Approve, 49% Disapprove

*PPP's newest look at the New Jersey contest for Governor finds Chris Christie leading Jon Corzine 50-36. That 14 point margin is up from 10 in our June survey.

Christie continues to hold a commanding lead with independents, 54-26, and is receiving 86% of the Republican vote while holding Corzine to just 64% of the Democrats.

51% of New Jersey voters say that Barack Obama coming to campaign for Jon Corzine had no impact on their choice for Governor, Although Obama maintains a 53% approval rating in the state, the same as a month ago, only 18% of respondents say that his campaigning for Corzine made them more likely to support the Governor for reelection. 32% said his appearance made them less likely to do so.
