More 2012: Chamber, labor up with new TV ads

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is up with new TV ads hitting Montana Sen. Jon Tester (D), Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown (D), but supporting Nevada Sen. Dean Heller (R).

Meanwhile, Americans United for Change, SEIU, and AFSCME are going up with TV ads hitting Sens. Scott Brown (R), Heller (R), and Rep. Denny Rehberg on Medicare.

USA Today: “Two-thirds of the Republican freshmen who captured Democratic-held seats in the GOP's 2010 takeover of the U.S. House of Representatives saw their fundraising dip in the past quarter, campaign-finance reports show.”

          Here comes the money into every state trying to buy the congress. Wake up America! The concentrat­ion of wealth in the hands of fewer and fewer people and the concentrat­ion of power in stricter, less compassion­ate hands in all aspects of local, state and the federal government has colored the TEA/GOP/Re­publicans as the tormentors of the American dream. The TEA/GOP/Re­­publicans want to do away with are: Sarbanes Oxley act of 2002 and the Frank Dodd Act because these two acts provide guidelines and restrictio­­ns put into place resulting from the recession of 2007 and 2008! There were major corporate and accounting scandals like Enron, Adelphia, TYCO and Worldcom which cost investors billions. The Frank Dodd Act provided a sweeping overhaul of America's financial regulatory system to consolidat­­e agencies, regulate financial markets, implement consumer protection­­, provide financial crisis tools for the FDIC and improving accounting processes and tightening credit rating regulation­­s. America stands at a cross roads in the next election.
