In Louisiana, a political prescription for Obamacare

BATON ROUGE, La. — Rep. Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana liver doctor who could determine control of the Senate, has crafted a two-step prescription for helping the GOP retake the upper chamber.

First, Cassidy said at a series of events here, Republicans cannot simply treat the midterms as a referendum on Obamacare -- even as his opponent, Sen. Mary Landrieu, and other Democrats scramble to distance themselves from the rocky rollout of the president's signature legislative initiative.

Second, Cassidy stressed the importance of rejecting liberal charges that Republicans serve only corporations and the country-club crowd.

Generally a pretty good article - but incomplete as to being able to maintain control of the house and retake the senate...

Too much Republican infighting...they need to reconcile with the Tea Party or risk splitting the votes to the benefit of the Socialists. There are some seats that need to go conservative and some that can stay right of center - these will be based on the voting population that can win the election...not by the party.

Get Your $4!t together, or GOP will stand for Gone Old Party...

Actions speak louder than words.

It's the democrats who have their heads shoved up the butts of corporations 8:13. The democrats would eat crap if it would make their corporate handlers happy. Any and all these regulations we hear about are dreamed up by the corporations and acted upon by the democrats so to get rid of small business. Democrats are foul evil people. They will lie 9and do) at the drop of a hat.
