Add centrist Senate Democrat Ben Nelson of Oklahoma to the list of Democrats who dismiss any national impact of Tuesday's gubernatorial elections in New Jersey and Virginia, and the House race in New York.
Asked if there are any implications for President Barack Obama or the Democratic Party, Nelson said no.
"These are local races," he said. "I know some people see this as a referendum. I don't see it that way at all. You can take a look at the national polls, and that shows you the referendum on Obama or his policies or what-have-you. But these elections won't have anything to say about that."
