Democrats are getting scared. Though Republicans have been consistent on their support of tax cuts for all and the repeal of ObamaCare, many Democrats are just now getting around to similar positions.

Democratic candidates are spending three times more advertising against the health reform law than they are in support of it.
Since the beginning of Congress’s August recess, Democratic candidates have poured $930,000 into ads deriding the health overhaul but just $300,000 in pro-reform spots, according to Evan Tracey at Kantar Media.
