Democrats need to be offensively (both senses of the word too) aggressive in Congressional campaigns as well. Loudly and vociferously call bullshit on Tparty talking points. Negative ads against Republicans are a definite plus as long as there are plenty of ads pointing out The Presidents and Democrats accomplishments too. VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC BALLOT get Congress doing America's business again.
