WASHINGTON (AP) — In the short-on-specifics elections just ended, the economy was the main issue, Republicans ran against President Barack Obama and Democrats campaigned against the billionaire Koch brothers. That leaves the new GOP majority in Congress with a mandate to improve the economy, yet without a national consensus on how to go about it. At the same time, shrunken Democratic minorities in the House and Senate are in search of a more appealing approach.
As if the campaign had not ended, the Democratic organization American Bridge on Friday attacked Republicans and Charles and David Koch, whose organizations spent uncounted millions to elect GOP candidates.
"It's not only that they are willing to pour infinite money into rigging our democracy. It's that in turn, Republican legislators are beholden to the Kochs' self-serving agenda — an agenda that comes at the expense of working families and a healthy environment," the group said.that's not an attack it's putting out the truth that republicans and their scotus have done to insure the fickled electorate is inundated with the red meat and misinformation of the republican propaganda machine this too was handled IMO irresponsibly there was no counter to those misleading's, but the larger issue which I feel would have made a difference would have been to rebuke their lies and couple it with the accomplishments what this admin has done for American and reminding them that congress was labeled "DO NOTHING" because they did nothing, always with emphasis on what they have done inspite of road blocks. they should have been hitting people with this info in the link below and let the republican try to spin it.

Democracy Corps, which supports Democrats, said the elections turned out the way they did in part because of the "president's failure to engage with an economic narrative and vision relevant to the current tough economy."
