Democrats Play Fast and Loose with Healthcare Facts
Tweet Share on Facebook October 22, 2012 CommentWith the nation's attention focused on the presidential election, few people are looking at the global universe of congressional races.

His campaign, following his lackluster performance in the first debate with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, is in the late-early stages of disarray. As an antidote the president has seized on an otherwise throwaway line tossed off by his GOP opponent as the cornerstone of his campaign's remaining days. To wit: Save Big Bird, Vote Obama.
