(CNN) There's been a lot of grumbling and finger-pointing among Democrats in the wake of the loss of the Virginia governor's race and a razor-thin win in New Jersey's gubernatorial contest.

But also seemingly accurate in the wake of the considerable election losses -- Democrats lost all three statewide offices in Virginia, the state Senate president in New Jersey is currently trailing, Democrats were blown out in local Long Island races -- that the party suffered on Tuesday.
