9. ....Democrats are openly critical of the health care law in their advertisements.
10. Even though special elections are rarely reliable predictors for future elections, Alex Sinks loss to David Jolly in Floridas 13th District last week added to the Democrats negative story line. Frightening Democrats further, none of the Republican third-party money in the race came from the Koch brothers, ...."
