Democratic Senate candidates, facing withering criticism on the national health care law, are gambling they can turn voters against two billionaire brothers funding the attackseven if few Americans would recognize the pair on the street.
In an accelerating counteroffensive stretching from the Senate chamber to Alaska, Democrats are denouncing Charles and David Koch, the key figures behind millions of dollars in conservative TV ads hammering Democratic candidates and their ties to President Barack Obama.
Democrats depict the Kansas-based Koch (pronounced Coke) brothers as self-serving oil barons who pay huge sums to try to buy elections and advance their agenda of low taxes and less regulation. And theyre using unusually harsh language in the Senate.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says the Koch-financed ads against Democrats and the health care law contain lies made up from whole cloth.

The Koch brothers hide under the beds of all liberals.
Won’t work.
Nary a word about Soros and the West Coast-East Coast Rat money machine...
It won’t work, Kock Bros are somewhere around 60th on the list of large donors, way behind the unions.
Abortion, gun control, Dems need to get back to basics.
Nope . . . they have to invent an Emmanuel Goldstein bogeyman to distract from hatred of BB.
This is so inside baseball it’s not even baseball. Most Americans can’t pronounce their name, much less care how they spend their money.
Billionaire Soros good, Billionaires Koch Brothers bad.
The RATS put $$$B Bloomberg in to run NYC.
Somehow they didn’t have a problem with that.
Yet not a peep about the Unions and Soros who give millions upon millions of dollars to elect Dems
Good many work for the Koch brothers. Wonder if many even know it? Just one more attack by the left on job creators.
Why doesn’t B0 Soebarkah just sign the execution order and have them droned?
We can’t hope that the MSM will allow a fair presentation of the facts.
Somebody on our side has got to start hammering on Soros and all the billionaire Obama bundlers.
This is like “war on women” it’s not a secret, we gotta fight back or get killed like in 2012.
Do these people even know the Koch brothers are libertarian, staunchly anti war, and donated 20 million dollars to the ACLU in its fight against the patriot Act? Do they even care?
You trying to give him ideas?
Nah; every Big Brother needs his Emmanuel Goldstein, remember. This is the Senate Moonbat Dems showing off their “two minute hate” . . .
Doesn’t matter. Being libertarian and speaking out against Obamacare is enough for the moonbat party to portray them as monsters.
Oh wait, that's leftwing money men Tom Steyer (and wife) and George Soros. Nothing to see here - move along.

14 of the top 16 are demonrats.
I still have Al Franken telling me we need to get money out of politics.
Billionaire Nazi collaborating, socialist Rats, good! Billionaire conservative patriots, BAAAD!
The EVIL KOCH BROTHERS!!
But, if you mention SEIU, George Soros, Open Society, etc., and how much they support Radical Democrats, you are just a CRAZY PERSON!, or Homophobic, and likely a racist, as well.
We lost the war, when we lost control of the language, folks.
