Washington Post: “Most Democrats Avoid Health Care”

Apologies for the multiple e-mails on a Friday afternoon, but I feel the need to pass on this post from the Washington Post’s politics blog, which begins thusly: “If House Democrats sustain major losses on Nov. 2, the health care law passed earlier this year is likely to be a big reason.”  It’s also worth taking a look at the word cloud below, which illustrates the most common voter responses when asked to state their concerns about re-electing Democrats.  “Health care” appeared more often as a reason to oppose Democrats’ re-election than “President Obama,” “Nancy Pelosi,” or “liberal.”
