[Hot Air » Top Picks] Politically, the Democrats have the worst of all worlds.  Not only do they look out of touch for spending all of their efforts on a plan that is deeply unpopular with voters, they now are seen as actively damaging the economy.  The deficit spending alone would be enough to send voters heading for the exits, but the increased costs are even worse.  Seventy-eight percent of all respondents believe that middle-class tax increases will come as a result of ObamaCare, with almost two-thirds (65%) believing that to be “very likely.”  Fifty-eight percent of Democrats expect middle-class tax increases, which shows how effective Obama has been in selling this plan.

Duncan Borrowman: Digital Economy Bill - I am a rebel!

[Duncan Borrowman] We are proud of the record of Liberal Democrat peers in taking swift action, including working across party lines, to defeat some of the worst legislation to come out of this Labour government.
