Democrats don't want to talk about it and Republicans running against them aren't exactly hammering away at it, but a new survey shows that ObamaCare remains among the issues at the forefront of voters' minds in the 2014 mid-term election.
Several Democrats running in competitive Senate races -- including Sen. Mark Udall in Colorado, Rep. Bruce Braley in Iowa, Michelle Nunn in Georgia, and Alison Lundergan Grimes in Kentucky -- have tried to play down ObamaCare, either distancing themselves from the law they voted for or deflecting when asked how they would've have voted in they were in office when it passed.

It’s no secret that Washington desperately needs to cut spending. Nearly everyone agrees that national debt levels are unsustainable. The Congressional Budget Office has warned that the nation’s debt is set to jump to 106 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2039. Clearly, we cannot continue down this path.
Both Republicans are Democrats are to blame for the $17.8 trillion national debt. Unfortunately, both parties have their sacred cows in the budget that they are unwilling to cut. Many Democrats say they are willing to cut military spending but won’t cut a dime of “social spending.” Many Republicans say that we need to slash the welfare state but won’t cut a dime of military spending. As a result, zero spending actually gets cut. Read more here...

4. Liberal Commentator Turns Desperate - by Logan Albright
As we enter the home stretch of the midterm elections, Democrats’ chances of holding the Senate appear to be fading, and commentators on the left are beginning to panic. Abandoning honest analysis in favor of conspiracy theories and allegations of bias in the polls.Particularly egregious in this regard is the always excitable Rachel Maddow, whose plummeting ratings have apparently driven her to desperation.
In a recent report, Maddow, after noting that the Senate elections are essentially tied (debatable, but we’ll let her have that one), took a dramatic left turn into conspiracy land, warning that Republicans are likely to steal the elections through voter suppression efforts. Looks like someone has been faithfully attending her spin class. Read more here...

The Obama administration is the most open and transparent administration in history.....said no serious person, EVER. Though the line is still repeated ad nauseam by White House and administration officials, it has been thoroughly debunked time and time again. But it seems that the administration isn't just trying to provide cover for itself anymore. They're also now trying to run interference for North Carolina Democrat Kay Hagan.
Under fire for her family benefitting from the wasteful 2009 stimulus bill, Hagan got an assist this week from the Department of Agriculture. The Carolina Journal is investigating a $50,000 grant to a company owned by Hagan's husband and his brothers, but the paper isn't getting much in the way of transparency from the USDA: Read more here...
6. Supreme Court Spotlight: Want a Non-Dentist to Whiten Your Teeth? Not So Fast! - by Tommy Creegan
If the North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners had it their way, it would be illegal for you to see a non-dentist for teeth whitening services.
Like most ideas conceived by proponents of big government, occupational licensure laws claim to protect consumers. In reality, these regulations protect those already working in an industry by creating a barrier to entry to provide a given service, resulting in limited market choices and higher prices for consumers.
