Do those attack ads work? All too often, yes. Politicians don't sell their souls to the wealthy for no reason.

Note that they don't have to work. We don't have to believe them. Billionaires still have only one vote apiece (and that really burns their butts, too). But all too many people are apathetic and gullible.

All signs indicate that the 2014 elections will be very bad for Democrats - not because of the Affordable Care Act, but mostly because Democrats tend not to vote in midterm elections. They're defending more seats than Republicans, too, and many of those are in red states.

There are other reasons, including the fact that Republicans, as always, have a big money advantage (and all of those fake 'grassroots' groups bankrolled by billionaires). But none of that would matter if Democrats actually voted in large numbers.
