The Weekly Standard, November 19, 2014Liberals claim this election isn’t about Obamacare, but Republican ad buys in Senate races this October say otherwise—as the GOP is running far more anti-Obamacare ads than ads on jobs, spending, taxes, international affairs, energy, immigration, or anything else.
The Weekly Standard, October 28, 2014Tuesday’s election—the second historic loss for President Obama’s signature legislation—helps pave the way for the full repeal of Obamacare and its replacement with a conservative alternative.
