Democrats are trying to make Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.), one of Congress' most outspoken members, a liability for his fellow Republicans stuck in tight Illinois congressional races.
In a new ad paid for by the Democratic House Majority PAC and labor union SEIU, Reps. Judy Biggert (R-Ill.) and Bob Dold (R-Ill.) are accused of "hiding behind Joe Walsh's loud talk." The ad will run in heavy rotation for two weeks.

My husband's family and most of his friends are full-on republican and love the teabaggers and Romney. It makes for some tense interactions- he's the only one besides one niece who's a Democrat.
watch for some news about the bachman race here today.
