A barrage of ads that reminds voters of exactly what various Democrats did in supporting Obamacare, is causing those Democrats to lose support across the country as the 2014 midterm elections draw slowly closer.

Poor Demmies. When you push an agenda that most people don't want, a nationwide campaign telling the truth about what you are doing, is the LAST thing you want to have on the airwaves.

Couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch.

My main question is: Where were these ads pointing out the truth about what Democrats are doing, for the last several elections?

Ads Attacking Health Law Stagger Outspent Democrats

By CARL HULSEJAN. 15, 2014

WASHINGTON — Democrats are increasingly anxious about an onslaught of television ads hitting vulnerable Senate and House candidates for their support of the new health law, since many lack the resources to fight back in the early stages of the midterm campaign.

Since September, Americans for Prosperity, a group financed in part by the billionaire Koch brothers, has spent an estimated $20 million on television advertising that calls out House and Senate Democrats by name for their support of the Affordable Care Act.

The unusually aggressive early run of television ads, which has been supplemented by other conservative initiatives, has gone largely unanswered, and strategists in both parties agree it is taking a toll on its targets.

Little-Acorn. It is finally coming FULL CIRCLE for Democrats. They are actually becoming their OWN worst enemies.
That is what happens to people. No matter what their political leanings might be, when they are so easily convinced to believe LIES, repeated often enough...that soon become THEIR facts.
Politicians have ONE agenda. Get elected/re-elected. And the Democrats know the large percentage of Uneducated Americans..usually vote Democrat because of the promises THAT NEVER COME TRUE...but sound good enough to WASTE A VOTE FOR.
