Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie addresses supporters at his election night party in Asbury Park, New JerseyBy John Whitesides WASHINGTON (Reuters) - For deeply divided Republicans, Tuesday's elections in New Jersey and Virginia did little to resolve the feud between hardline conservatives and establishment pragmatists who worry the party is drifting too far to the right to win statewide and national elections. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's easy re-election in a mostly Democratic state was an emphatic signal of the appeal of Republicans who talk about reaching across party lines. It also solidified Christie as an early favorite in the race for the 2016 Republican U.S. presidential nomination. But the closer-than-expected race for Virginia governor encouraged Tea Party and social conservatives, and seemed to ensure that their top issue - an uncompromising assault on Democratic President Barack Obama's healthcare law - will be front and center in the 2014 midterm elections.

Column: This weekend, China will plot its economic future

Posted: 06 Nov 2013 12:22 PM PST

Paramilitary policeman stands guard under flags outside the Great Hall of the People in BeijingBy Anatole Kaletsky The ponderously named Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, which takes place this weekend, is a more important event for the world economy and for global geopolitics than the budget battles, central bank meetings and elections that attract infinitely more attention in the media and financial markets. The obvious reason for this meeting's importance is that China is destined in the long run to become the world's biggest economy and a political superpower. At the Third Plenum in 1978, Deng Xiaoping launched the market reforms that unleashed the power of the profit motive in China, and it was at the corresponding event in 1993 that Jiang Zemin accelerated the process of dismantling state-owned enterprises and integrating China into the world economy that culminated with China's accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001.
