President Barack Obama is madder than hell about reports of veterans dying while awaiting health care and allegations that hospitals may have altered records to hide lengthy delays,
More than 66,000 ads in U.S. House and Senate races aired through March 9, more than triple what candidates and allied groups aired during a comparable period four years ago.
Republican David Jollys victory in a special election in Floridas 13th Congressional District opens a season of midterm elections that could revolve around PPACA.
As chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee in 2009 and 2010, Waxman worked with then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to steer Obamas Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act through the chamber.
A Republican group promoting pro-business candidates as it battles the Tea Party in U.S. primary campaigns is being financed mostly by labor unions, one of the Democratic Partys staunchest allies.
